In the present paper the sensitivity V of plastic nuclear track detectors CR-39 to the space radiation, accelerated heavy ions in wide LET range and α-particles is studied. Different approaches for V evaluation are considered and compared. Main attention is given to the method that is appropriate for the measurement of short range heavy secondaries of space radiation. Finally, the experimental verification of the designed V function is carried out via simulation of the secondaries with low energy α-particles in the vicinity of the Bragg peak.
