This book was released on 2019 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Sun is the main source of all kind of solar energetic particles in the Solar System, electrons, protons and ions with energies from few keV to several GeV. These particles are released from the solar corona and spread through the interplanetary space, the heliosphere, influenced by the interplanetary magnetic field and arriving to the Earth and interacting with the terrestrial magnetosphere. The effects of SEP interactions with space-based devices, manned missions and the Earth atmosphere are encompassed by what is known as space weather. This thesis describes the work we performed on this field, that can be divided in three parts: i) observational studies of solar energetic particles carried out using data coming from space-based missions such as STEREO and Helios, as well as tools like SEPEM server; ii) the development of tools and particle instrument modelling in order to use of them with pre-existing models to be used in the simulation of solar events; iii) solar energetic particle event simulations making use of transport models, either adapting tools previously developed by our group, as SEPInversion, or creating new software capable of carrying out full inversions of events, that is, taking into account the angular response and the energetic response of the particle instrument. These tools developed during this work have allow us to study and characterise the radiation conditions in the inner heliosphere applying modelling techniques never used done before. We also explore some of the applications of these tools. We developed a study about the radial dependence of electron peak intensities and anisotropy, we simulate observations of EPD/EPT instrument on board Solar Orbiter using Helios data and finally we studied the expected cumulated fluence and the fluence spectra computed using SEPEM for Solar Orbiter mission. In conclusion, the obtained results as well as the developed tools will be very useful for the study and interpretation of the future scientific data coming from Parker Solar Probe, Solar Orbiter and BepiColombo." -- TDX.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, I explore the relationship between solar energetic particles (SEPs) and the interplanetary magnetic field, and I use observations of SEPs to probe the region of space between the Sun and the Earth. After an introduction of major concepts in heliospheric physics, describing some of the history of energetic particles and defining the data sets used in the work, the rest of this dissertation is organized around three major concepts related to energetic particle transport: magnetic field-line length, interplanetary turbulence, and particle scattering and diffusion. In Chapter 2, I discuss how energetic particles can be used to measure the lengths of field lines and how particle scattering complicates the interpretation of these measurements. I then propose applying these measurements to a particular open problem: the origin and properties of heliospheric current sheets. In the next chapter, I move from the large to small scale and apply energetic particle measurements to important problems in interplanetary turbulence. I introduce two energetic-particle features, one of which I discovered in the course of this work, which have size scales roughly that of the correlation scale of the turbulence (the largest scale over which observations are expected to be similar). I discuss how multi-spacecraft measurements of these energetic particle features can provide a measure of the correlation scale independent of the magnetic field measurements. Finally, I consider interplanetary scattering and diffusion in detail. I describe new observations of particle diffusion in the direction perpendicular to the average magnetic field, showing that particles only scatter a few times between their injection at the Sun and observation at the Earth. I also provide numerical simulation results of diffusion parallel to the field which can be used to correct for the effects of transport on the particles. These corrections allow inferences to be made about the particle energies at injection from observations of the event-integrated fluences at 1 AU. By carefully including scattering, cooling, field line meandering and turbulence effects, solar-energetic particles become a powerful tool for studying the inner heliosphere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transport of solar energetic particles (SEPs) in the inner heliosphere is a very important issue which can affect our daily life. For example, large SEP events can lead to the failure of power grids, interrupt communications, and may participate in global climate change. The SEPS also can harm humans in space and destroy the instruments on board spacecraft. Studying the transport of SEPs also helps us understand remote regions of space which are not visible to us because there are not enough photons in those places. The interplanetary magnetic field is the medium in which solar energetic particles travel. The Parker Model of the solar wind and its successor, the Weber and Davis model, have been the dominant models of the solar wind and the interplanetary magnetic field since 1960s. In this thesis, I have reviewed these models and applied an important correction to the Weber and Davis model. Various solar wind models and their limitations are presented. Different models can affect the calculation of magnetic field direction at 1ÃU by as much as about 30\%. Analysis of the onset of SEP events could be used to infer the release time of solar energetic particles and to differentiate between models of particle acceleration near the Sun. It is demonstrated that because of the nature of the stochastic heliospheric magnetic field, the path length measured along the lineof force can be shorter than that of the nominal Parker spiral. These results help to explain recent observations. A two dimensional model and a fully three dimensional numerical model for the transport of SEPs has been developed based on Parker's transport equation for the first time. R̀̀eservoir'' phenomenon, which means the inner heliosphere works like a reservoir for SEPs during large SEP events, and multi-spacecraft observation of peak intensities are explained by this numerical model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solar energetic particles (SEPs) emitted from the Sun are a major space weather hazard motivating the development of predictive capabilities. This book presents the results and findings of the HESPERIA (High Energy Solar Particle Events forecasting and Analysis) project of the EU HORIZON 2020 programme. It discusses the forecasting operational tools developed within the project, and presents progress to SEP research contributed by HESPERIA both from the observational as well as the SEP modelling perspective. Using multi-frequency observational data and simulations HESPERIA investigated the chain of processes from particle acceleration in the corona, particle transport in the magnetically complex corona and interplanetary space, to the detection near 1 AU. The book also elaborates on the unique software that has been constructed for inverting observations of relativistic SEPs to physical parameters that can be compared with space-borne measurements at lower energies. Introductory and pedagogical material included in the book make it accessible to students at graduate level and will be useful as background material for Space Physics and Space Weather courses with emphasis on Solar Energetic Particle Event Forecasting and Analysis.

This book was released on 2007-12-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding how the Sun changes though its 11-year sunspot cycle and how these changes affect the vast space around the Sun – the heliosphere – has been one of the principal objectives of space research since the advent of the space age. This book presents the evolution of the heliosphere through an entire solar activity cycle. The last solar cycle (cycle 23) has been the best observed from both the Earth and from a fleet of spacecraft. Of these, the joint ESA-NASA Ulysses probe has provided continuous observations of the state of the heliosphere since 1990 from a unique vantage point, that of a nearly polar orbit around the Sun. Ulysses’ results affect our understanding of the heliosphere from the interior of the Sun to the interstellar medium - beyond the outer boundary of the heliosphere. Written by scientists closely associated with the Ulysses mission, the book describes and explains the many different aspects of changes in the heliosphere in response to solar activity. In particular, the authors describe the rise in solar activity from the last minimum in solar activity in 1996 to its maximum in 2000 and the subsequent decline in activity.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph traces the development of our understanding of how and where energetic particles are accelerated in the heliosphere and how they may reach the Earth. Detailed data sets are presented which address these topics. The bulk of the observations are from spacecraft in or near the ecliptic plane. It is timely to present this subject now that Voyager-1 has entered the true interstellar medium. Since it seems unlikely that there will be a follow-on to the Voyager programme any time soon, the data we already have regarding the outer heliosphere are not going to be enhanced for at least 40 years.

Download or read book Viewing Radiation Signatures of Solar Energetic Particles in Interplanetary Space written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A current serious limitation on the studies of solar energetic particle (SEP) events is that their properties in the inner heliosphere are studied only through in situ spacecraft observations. Our understanding of spatial distributions and temporal variations of SEP events has come through statistical studies of many such events over several solar cycles. In contrast, flare SEPs in the solar corona can be imaged through their radiative and collisional interactions with solar fields and particles. We suggest that the heliospheric SEPs may also interact with heliospheric particles and fields to produce signatures which can be remotely observed and imaged. A challenge with any such candidate signature is to separate it from that of flare SEPs. The optimum case for imaging high-energy heliospheric protons may be the emission following proton collisions with solar wind (SW) ions. In the case of MeV electrons, gyrosynchotron radio emission may be the most readily detectible signal. In both cases we may already have observed one or two such events. Another radiative signature from nonthermal particles may be resonant transition radiation, which has likely already been observed from solar flare electrons We discuss energetic neutrons as another possible remote signature, but we rule out y-ray line and 0.511 MeV positron annihilation emission as observable signatures of heliospheric energetic ions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise primer introduces the non-specialist reader to the physics of solar energetic particles (SEP) and systematically reviews the evidence for the two main mechanisms which lead to the so-called impulsive and gradual SEP events. More specifically, the timing of the onsets, the longitude distributions, the high-energy spectral shapes, the correlations with other solar phenomena (e.g. coronal mass ejections), as well as the all-important elemental and isotopic abundances of SEPs are investigated. Impulsive SEP events are related to magnetic reconnection in solar flares and jets. The concept of shock acceleration by scattering on self-amplified Alfvén waves is introduced, as is the evidence of reacceleration of impulsive-SEP material in the seed population accessed by the shocks in gradual events. The text then develops processes of transport of ions out to an observer. Finally, a new technique to determine the source plasma temperature in both impulsive and gradual events is demonstrated. Last but not least the role of SEP events as a radiation hazard in space is mentioned and a short discussion of the nature of the main particle telescope designs that have contributed to most of the SEP measurements is given.
