Design considerations for the use of laser-plasma accelerators for advanced space radiation studies [PDF]
We present design considerations for the use of laser-plasma accelerators for mimicking space radiation and testing space-grade electronics. This novel application takes advantage of the inherent ability of laser-plasma accelerators to produce particle ...

Physics of Earth’s Radiation Belts [PDF]
This open access book serves as textbook on the physics of the radiation belts surrounding the Earth. Discovered in 1958 the famous Van Allen Radiation belts were among the first scientific discoveries of the Space Age.

On the nonlinear triggering of VLF emissions by power line harmonic radiation [PDF]
VLF ground data from Porojarvi in N. Finland has been presented. Spectrograms reveal frequent occurrence of power line harmonic radiation (PLHR), originating from the Finnish power system and from heavy industrial plant.

Relativistic surfatron process for Landau resonant electrons in radiation belts [PDF]
Recent theoretical studies of the nonlinear wave-particle interactions for relativistic particles have shown that Landau resonant orbits could be efficiently accelerated along the mean background magnetic field for propagation angles θ in close proximity

Atmospheric losses of radiation belt electrons [PDF]
A numerical model of the low‐altitude energetic electron radiation belt, including the effects of pitch angle diffusion into the atmosphere and azimuthal drift, predicts lifetimes and longitude‐dependent loss rates as a function of electron energy and diffusion coefficient.

Space weather effects on the MAGION-4 and MAGION-5 solar cells [PDF]
Data on solar array efficiency measured on board two Czech MAGION micro-satellites between August 1995 and June 2002, during the period of increasing and high solar activity, were used to study the space weather effects on photo-voltaic solar cells. A

Radiation Belts and Their Environment [PDF]
AbstractThe Van Allen radiation belts of high-energy electrons and ions, mostly protons, are embedded in the Earth’s inner magnetosphere where the geomagnetic field is close to that of a magnetic dipole. Understanding of the belts requires a thorough knowledge of the inner magnetosphere and its dynamics, the coupling of the solar wind to the ...
