This volume is the result of a multidisciplinary effort to assess the
state of the art in the knowledge on the radiation situation during
deep space missions and on the impact of this complex radiation
environment on space travelers. It comprises the lectures by the
faculty members as well as short contributions by the students given
at the October 1991 NATO ASI. The volume is divided into two parts:
radiation environment, dosimetry, shielding effects (14 papers); and
radiation exposure in manned space flight, risk estimates, protection
(nine papers).
