Harmonization of RBSP and Arase Energetic Electron Measurements Utilizing ESA Radiation Monitor Data

Miyoshi, Yoshizumi; Shinohara, Iku; Mitani, Takefumi +11 more

Accurate measurements of trapped energetic electron fluxes are of major importance for the studies of the complex nature of radiation belts and the characterization of space radiation environment. The harmonization of measurements between different instruments increases the accuracy of scientific studies and the reliability of data-driven models t…

Extreme relativistic electron fluxes in the Earth's outer radiation belt: Analysis of INTEGRAL IREM data

Meredith, Nigel P.; Horne, Richard B.; Sandberg, Ingmar +2 more

Relativistic electrons (E > 500 keV) cause internal charging and are an important space weather hazard. To assess the vulnerability of the satellite fleet to these so-called "killer" electrons, it is essential to estimate reasonable worst cases, and, in particular, to estimate the flux levels that may be reached once in 10 and once in 100 years…
