SUMMARY:Space Seminar: Dr. Wojciech Hajdas
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Details\n\nDate: 17 June 2026, 15:00 Location: Building
  D3, room 1.11 Speaker: Dr. Wojciech Hajdas\n\nYou can also join online via
  MS Teams\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract\n\nFamily of ESA Radiation Monitors for Space
  Weather Observations – Implementation, Performance, and Prospects\n\nThe s
 eminar will focus on the development and evolution of ESA radiation monitor
 s used for space weather observations and radiation environment measurement
 s in space missions.\n\nThe loss of the PRARE instrument onboard the ERS-1 
 satellite while flying over the South Atlantic Anomaly highlighted the seri
 ous risks posed by space radiation and led to the implementation of the fir
 st ESA Radiation Environment Monitor (REM). Since then, numerous radiation 
 monitoring systems have been developed and deployed on satellites operated 
 by major space agencies worldwide.\n\nDuring the seminar, Dr. Wojciech Hajd
 as will discuss the implementation, capabilities, and in-orbit performance 
 of ESA-developed radiation monitors, as well as emerging technologies for s
 pace radiation detection. The presentation will also address the role of ra
 diation monitoring in future space exploration missions, component qualific
 ation, and space weather research.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nDr. Wojc
 iech Hajdas graduated from the Jagiellonian University in Kraków with a spe
 cialization in nuclear physics and obtained his PhD at the Swiss Federal In
 stitute of Technology in Zürich (ETHZ).\n\nHe is currently affiliated with 
 the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland, where he works within the
  Laboratory for Particle Physics (LTP) and the Detectors, Irradiations, and
  Applied Particle Physics group (DIAPP). His work focuses on radiation dete
 ction technologies, particle exposure facilities for component testing, and
  space radiation monitoring systems.\n\nIn collaboration with ESA, industry
 , and academic institutions, Dr. Hajdas develops advanced detection technol
 ogies for space particle environments and X-ray measurements, including pro
 jects such as NGRM, RADEM, HIT/HEPS, AMORE, and POLAR. He is also actively 
 involved in radiation effects research and international initiatives includ
 ing RADNEXT and RADNEXT 2030.\n\nDr. Hajdas is the author and co-author of 
 approximately 170 peer-reviewed scientific publications and two books relat
 ed to space and solar astrophysics.
