We describe a novel space-based low-temperature radiation detector, the ''Particle Heating Detector'' (PhD), which was recently selected to be part of the first mission of the Low-Temperature Microgravity Physics Facility, scheduled to fly on the International Space Station in 2008. This massive bol
The Sirad experiment aims to measure with great precision the cosmic ray radiation environment on the outside of the International Space Station. The detector, composed of a stack of 32 silicon detectors arranged in X-Y pattern and surmounted by a scintillator system, is capable of detecting nuclei
