Description

Each AeroCube-6 vechicle carries three dosimeters measuring electrons with energies from about
43 keV to about 830 keV and protons with enegies ranging from 370 keV to 12 MeV. The dataset manager, Dr. Paul O Brien,
can be reached at paul.obrien@aero.org. The data are described in AeroCube-6 Dosimeter Data README (v3.0),
Aerospace Report No. TOR-2016-01155, The Aerospace Corporation, March 4, 2016, El Segundo, CA. Also see
