Understanding space weather to shield society: A global road map for 2015-2025 commissioned by COSPAR and ILWS

TL;DR: There is a growing appreciation that the environmental conditions that we call space weather impact the technological infrastructure that powers the coupled economies around the world as discussed by the authors, and there is also a growing awareness that space weather impacts the technologies that are used in the world.
Journal ArticleDOI

Space weather impacts on satellites and forecasting the Earth's electron radiation belts with SPACECAST

TL;DR: In this paper, a new European system is described to forecast the radiation belts up to 3'h ahead, which has three unique features: first, it uses physics-based models, which include wave-particle interactions; second, it provides a forecast for the whole outer radiation belt including geostationary, medium, and slot region orbits; third, it is a truly international effort including Europe, United States, and Japan.
Journal ArticleDOI

MULASSIS: a Geant4-based multilayered shielding simulation tool

TL;DR: The software will be used as a general tool within ESA for radiation fluence, dose, and effects analysis and has been integrated into the ESA SPENVIS system, thus, making it accessible to the wider space community over the World Wide Web.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross calibration of NOAA GOES solar proton detectors using corrected NASA IMP‐8/GME data

TL;DR: In this article, a cross-calibration approach for the cross calibration of GOES solar proton detectors is developed using as reference the NASA IMP-8 Goddard Medium Energy Experiment (GME).
Journal ArticleDOI

Two solar proton fluence models based on ground level enhancement observations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present two new statistical models of high energy solar proton fluences based on ground level enhancement (GLE) observations during solar cycles 19-24 using a four parameter double power law function (known as the Band function) fits to integral GLE fluence spectra in rigidity.
