Simulation-based estimation of dosimetric quantities for different phantom compositions and the effectiveness of aluminum shielding against galactic cosmic rays

Astronauts on space missions are exposed to high radiation levels, especially from galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), which consist of particles with high energy such as protons, helium ions, and heavy ions. Accurate estimation of the dosimetric impact of GCR on human organs is crucial for radiation prote...
