title: Dosimetric mapping in BIORACK on IML2.
abstract: Seven detector packages consisting of plastic nuclear track detectors, nuclear emulsions and thermoluminescence dosimeters were exposed in different locations inside BIORACK during the IML2 mission.  The detectors supplement each other in their registration characteristics and cover well the different contributions of the space radiations to the dose.  In this report, results are given on total dose measurements, cosmic ray flux and neutron dose.  Total doses differ by up to a factor of 1.5 and heavy ion fluxes by more than a factor of 6 in the different locations.  The results are compared with those of previous missions.  The mission equivalent dose for the astronauts was calculated from the measurements to be 3.8 mSv.
