Abstract

The Battery-operated Independent Radiation Detector and Radiation Area Monitors ?own on-board the Exploration Flight Test 1 mission provide a unique opportunity to compare vehicle modeling results with both active and passive radiation measurements. The environment de?nitions and modeling e?orts are described, and a comparison of passive and active measurements is presented with respect to the modeling results.
