First Report of a Solar Energetic Particle Event Observed by China’s Tianwen-1 Mission in Transit to Mars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
Abstract Solar energetic particles (SEPs) associated with flares and/or coronal mass ejection (CME)-driven shocks can impose acute radiation hazards on space explorations. To measure energetic particles in near-Mars space, the Mars Energetic Particle Analyzer (MEPA) instrument on board China's Tianwen-1 (TW-1) mission was designed. Here,
