D. Heynderickx et al., A low altitude trapped proton model for solar minimum conditions based on SAMPEX/PET data, IEEE NUCL S, 46(6), 1999, pp. 1475-1480
We present a low altitude (below about 600 km) trapped proton model for sol
ar minimum conditions (1994-1995), based on measurements made by the Proton
/Electron Telescope onboard the SAMPEX satellite. Substantial differences a
re found with the low altitude part of the AP-8 MIN model: low energy fluxe
s appear to be overestimated by AP-8 MIN, while the new model predicts high
er fluxes than AP-8 MIN for energies above about 30 MeV.
