Detector response to charged particles: the deposited energy E _D is shown as a function of kinetic energy E _i . To each detector corresponds a single panel. For example the central panel is showing data for the H₂O slab detector. The Si disc and Si slab detectors mimic typical semiconductor detectors used in space-related dosimetric experiments. The dotted line with slope 1 corresponds to full absorption. The different GCR nuclei are indicated with different colors and line styles, as shown in the legend.
