  • Abstract
    Calculations of the proton induced SEU cross sections were performed using the experimental heavy ion SEU cross sections and a simplified model for estimation of the nuclear recoils (fragments) LET distribution. The results of the calculations were verified by comparing them to experimental and other calculational data showing that the proposed approach can be used for quick and practical estimations of the upset rate
