So no matter what, going beyond LEO would increase your exposure to radiation. And before
you bring up shielding from the Apollo craft, bring up the fact that astronauts walked on the moon in space suits and did
deep space space walks. So taking into consideration: VABs, GCRs, SPEs, Solar Flares, being outside the craft on the Moon, in deep Space:
Explain how a 7 day Gemini mission in LEO absorbed a larger dose of ionizing radiation than an 8 day Apollo mission ?
you are assuming that all sources of particle radiation is completely penetrating the Command Modules hull.. until you can understand the concept of how the shielding works you will never be satisfied..
Choos, just answer the question:
Explain how a 7 day Gemini mission in LEO absorbed a larger dose of ionizing radiation than an 8 day Apollo mission ?
If you can't explain it, just say so.

That has been answered, are you saying you don't find the correct answer satisfactory?

They didn't go anywhere near the SAA. They went through a less active portion of the VAB.

are you willing to admit that the Apollo command modules hull would have stopped/attenuated most of the particles?? i cant explain it to you if you ignore this fact.
its like trying to explain to you why the sky is blue when you dont believe in refraction..
And what makes you think the SAA is the more active than other areas of the belt?
На рис 1 приведены линии pавных L и В координат МакИлвайна над всей повехностью земного шаpа для высоты 1000 км. БМА отчетливо выделяется в изоконтурах напряженности магнитного поля. В этой области величина магнитного поля на уровне моря такая, как на высоте 1000 км вне аномалий.
В физике космических лучей БМА играет очень важную роль, влияя на потоки высокоэнергетичных заряженных частиц в околоземном космическом пространстве. Особенно большое влияние испытывают частицы радиационных поясов Земли.
В этой области внутренний радиационный пояс наиболее близко подходит к поверхности Земли. Низковысотные спутники только при пролетвах над БМА задевают отроги радиационного пояса. На рис 2 траектории пролетов спутника SERVIS-1 раскрашены в разные цвета в зависимости от измеренной интенсивности протонов с энергией 1.2 МэВ. Как видно из показанной справа шкалы цветов, интенсивность в аномалии (красный цвет) на четыре порядка выше интенсивности в средних широтах вне аномалии (коричневый цвет).

Oh let's see, it's been mapped and shows much higher particle levels, satellites going through the heart of the SAA have died resulting in others going through there being shut off prior to going into it....
That is not quantitative. It could have provided some shielding, it could have been of no consequence.
And how do you explain Apollo 13 in the LM?

Anything with mass provides shielding. If you want specific figures, you can always refer to this:
