Radose is your personal calculator of radiation received on a plane

Every time we travel by plane, we are under direct hit of cosmic radiation. Pilots usually receive the bigger radiation doses than even nuclear industry workers – this is why they live about 49 years on average.

Radose.com is your personal calculator of radiation received on a plane. Radose can calculate your present dose according to the flights you’ve made or prognosticate your future dose of radiation depending on your travelling schedule. Also, you can get a consultation with a professional radiologist and discover the meds that will help to lower the effect of being exposed to radiation.

Calculations of equivalent dose rate depending on geographical altitude, latitude and flight height are obtained on the basis of original patented methods. These methods are a collection of the world’s experience of tissue-equivalent radiation dose rates of secondary cosmic rays (protons, pions, muons, and neutrons). The used methods are distinguished by integration of results of the physical simulation on the base of Giant4, the empiric models on the base of the experimental measurements, usage of PCAIRE and FLUKA codes. The heliocentric potential changes and monitoring of GLE-events are taken into account on the basis of data of the neutron monitor network (www.nmdb.eu). The changes of cosmic ray spectrum due to the contribution of the active proton events are monitored with the help of usage of the online data of Geostationary Orbiting Environmental Satellites (GOES).

The total annual dose of radiation received by flying on the plane has to be no more than 1000 µSv or 1 mSv.

Any dose above that maximizes the probability of getting cancer or genetic mutations. To lower the risks you can buy special vitamins, treatments and meds.

The one and only protection from cosmic radiation that can be advised to every passenger (no matter the age) is the special Light Water with a very low level of deuterium.
