The Average Model uses data SUBJECT TERMS 1S. NUMBER OF PAGESThe dynamic nature of the inner magnetospher is not taken over the entire 14 months of the CRRES mission from included in any existing model, and presents a problem for July 1990 to October 1991. The Quiet Model uses data from orbit planning and satellite design when cost-effective mison July 1990 to March 1991. The Active Model uses data from ane imperative. A comparison of dose measurements on March 1991 to October 1991. The separation of the quiet and CRRES with NASA model predictions was previously reported active periods is based on the 24 March 1991 solar particle [6]. The comparison showed the extrem inadequacy of event and subsequent solar wind shock which rearranged the NASA AES [7] electron dose predictions for energies greater inner magnetosphere radiation pop-ulations. The dose models than 5 MeV following the March event. Here we use the are dose rate averages in grids of L and B/Bo. A software CRRES dose data to make statistical dose models for three program (CRRESRAD), developed for the models, allows the periods, before and after the March storm, separately, and Lf-ýýcalculation of dose behind 4 shielding thicknesses for any over the entire CRRES mission. We then use these models to satellite orbit. In the active period, dose acquired in a calculate the dose that would be received in various satellite circular, low-inclination orbit in the "slot region* is greater orbits behind four thicknesses of shielding. We show that, in than in the quiet period by up to two orders of magnitude, selected orbits, the dose can increase by more than two orders making this region, heretofore thought ...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
