Abstract
Due to high energetic radiation coming from SPE particles on Mars, it is required to find the best shielding for astronauts. In this work, various shielding materials, namely Kelvar, Polystyrene, and LiH, are simulated in spherical geometry around the martial regolith for various events of SPE namely August 1989 and October 1972 using OLTARIS software. The effective dose equivalent is simulated and studied by varying the material thickness for different SPE particles and ions. In addition, LET spectra are also systematically investigated.
