SAMADHA neutron dose rate at Mount Chacaltaya¶
SAMADHA (South Atlantic Magnetic Anomaly Dosimetry at High Altitude) is an INFN project aimed to monitor the neutron dose rate due to cosmic rays at the Chacaltaya Station (Bolivia, 5200 m) inside the South Atlantic Anomaly region, to study possible correlation between space weather events and dose rate at the ground, considering the proximity of the Van Allen Belts to the Earth’s surface in the SAA region.
