Abstract

Since 2017, the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS) – INFN Catania is involved into the ASI Supported Irradiation Facilties (ASIF) Project. This program is formulated by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) aims to establish an interactive coordinated set of the irradiation facilities, throughout the national territory, serving the national and international space communities. All the facilities involved must follow the recommendations provided by the ESA in order to obtain the standardization of the space testing procedures. Two beamlines at LNS have been appropriately adapted for Integrated Dose Test and Single Event Effect measurement. The paper will present the upgrade measures implemented to fulfill the European Space Agency (ESA) recommendations and the latest results of beam diagnostic system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
