Radiation Dose and Its Protection in The Moon From Galactic Cosmic Rays and Solar Energetic Particles: at The Lunar Surface and in A Lava Tube by jiearth94 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The paper discusses radiation exposure on the Moon from galactic cosmic rays (GCR) and solar energetic particles (SEP), highlighting the lack of atmospheric protection on the lunar surface. Using Monte Carlo simulations, the study estimates the effective dose equivalent at the lunar surface and within a lava tube, finding significant radiation protection in the latter. The findings suggest that lunar lava tubes could be advantageous for future lunar base designs to mitigate radiation risks for astronauts du
