Abstract

Single Event Upset (SEU) measurements were performed using the European Space Agency's (ESA) Standard SEU Monitor in the H4 Irradiation mixed-field test area at CERN. The results, tightly correlated with the radiation environment, are compared with those obtained with the CERN Radiation Monitors (RadMons) as well as with the Monte Carlo simulation of the experimental setup using the FLUKA Monte Carlo transport code. In addition, the SEU cross section of the device for particles and energies not available in standard testing (such as charged pions or GeV-energy hadrons) are simulated and discussed, showing an increase of over a factor 2 for nucleons in the 200 MeV-3 GeV range. A monoenergetic SEU cross section measurement at 120 GeV is included in the analysis.
