Figure 4-6 — Magnetic shielding parameters — torus: R = 900 m; r = 60 m. This figure plots the structural mass of a magnetic cosmic ray shield as well as the annual radiation dose versus the shield's cutoff energy. The dose is derived from a rough calculation which includes spectrum cutoff, nuclear…
