Results of cross-calibration studies of ESA SREM and NOAA GOES proton radiation monitors are presented. The studies use as reference dataset recently corrected measurements of IMP8/GME and are based on the development of novel techniques for the cross-calibration of GOES/EPS detectors and the deconvolution of SREM proton fluxes.

Presentation

In preparation for the Galileo global navigation satellite system, the European Space Agency (ESA) commissioned two test-bed spacecraft: Giove-A, launched on 28th December 2005, and Giove-B, launched on 26th April 2008. Both spacecraft were instrumented to measure the ionising radiation environment in Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) at around 23,260 km altitude, 56o inclination. This paper reports on...

11. The Electron Slot Region Radiation Environment Model

Dr Ingmar Sandberg (National Observatory of Athens, Greece)

The electron Slot Region Radiation Environment Model (e-SRREM) is presented. e-SRREM is a data-based statistical model which has been built on fifteen years of electron flux measurements. The model describes the trapped electron radiation in a region that includes the slot region between the inner and the outer electron radiation belts and provides energetic electron fluxes with...
