Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It turned out to be really a rare and happy occasion that we know exact1y when and how a new branch of space physics was born, namely, a physics of solar cosmic rays. It happened on February 28 and March 7, 1942 when the fIrst "cosmic ray bursts" were recorded on the Earth, and the Sun was unambiguously identifIed for the fIrst time as the source of high-velocity 10 particles with energies up to > 10 eV. Just due to such a high energy these relativistic particles have been called "solar cosmic rays" (SCR), in distinction from the "true" cosmic rays of galactic origin. Between 1942 and the beginning ofthe space era in 1957 only extremely high energy solar particle events could be occasionally recorded by cosmic ray ground-Ievel detectors and balloon borne sensors. Since then the detection techniques varied considerably and the study of SCR turned into essential part of solar and solar-terrestrial physics.
Download or read book The Prediction of Solar Proton Events Based on Solar Radio Emissions written by William E. O'Brien and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The short-term prediction of solar proton events based on a distinct U-shaped radio burst signature is verified. The prediction techniques uses peak flux density values of discrete frequency solar radio burst observations in the 100 to 10,000 MHz region. The criteria are applied to all major proton events from 1952 to 1969 and afford almost total success in predicting near-earth particle events that eminated from visible hemisphere regions of the sun. A correlation between U-shaped radio burst signatures and solar proton events as detected by the ATS-1 satellite, during 1967 and 1968, is also shown to be highly successful. Finally, a 'modified' U-shaped criterion is set forth for the accurate short-terms prediction of polar cap absorption events that result in at least a 2.0 dB riometer measurement of absorption. This 'modified' spectral configuration is then correlated with the major absorption events of the current solar cycle and it is found that prediction occurred for all principal PCA events that originated from visible solar hemisphere flares.

Download or read book Ionization Rates Due to the Absorption of Solar Protons and Alpha Particles in the Upper Atmosphere written by William Swider and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ionization rates generated by atmospheric attenuation of solar protons and alpha particles, with integral exponential rigidity spectrums, are calculated for selected values of particle rigidity and geomagnetic cutoff. Ionization produced by these energetic particles creates polar cap absorption events, which disturb radio and radar communications. The ionization rates are required in order to formulate models for these events. (Author).
Download or read book Solar Cosmic Rays written by Leonty Miroshnichenko and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents a comprehensive approach to the open questions in solar cosmic ray research and includes consistent and detailed considerations of conceptual, observational, theoretical, experimental and applied aspects of the field. The results of solar cosmic ray (SCR) investigations from 1942 to the present are summarized in this book. It treats the research questions in a self-contained form in all of its associations, from fundamental astrophysical aspects to geophysical, aeronautical and cosmonautical applications. A large amount of new data is included, which has been accumulated during the last several decades of space research. This second edition contains numerous updates and corrections to the text, figures and references. The author has also added several new sections about GLEs and radiation hazards. In addition, an extensive bibliography is provided, which covers non-partially the main achievements and failures in the field. This volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers in solar physics and space science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A COSPAR-sponsored Symposium on Solar Particle Events was held at Boston College at Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts on 16, 17, and 18 June 1971. The purpose of the symposium was to present measurements and observations made during the November 1969 Solar Proton Event. This particular event was unique in that extensive solar, magnetospheric and aeronomic measurements by rocket, satellite and ground based techniques were made to provide a comprehensive picture of the phenomenology and morphology of this event. In addition, present knowledge of solar proton events and their effects on the polar ionosphere was reviewed and discussed. This included theoretical studies as well as results from investigations of other solar proton events. The symposium comprised invited as well as contributed papers. A total of 49 papers presented at the symposium are included in these proceedings.
