The high-energy proton instrument (HEPI), a compact Cherenkov radiation space weather monitor Open
The monitoring of near-Earth space radiation has been a key component of space agencies’ strategies since their inception. The changes in these radiation fluxes, part of the broader space weather environment, originate from various sources…

Radiation risk assessment for varying space weather conditions for very high altitude 'near space' tourism balloon flights Open
Within the next decade it is likely that the space tourism industry will grow dramatically and the number of humans travelling into, and beyond, the stratosphere via commercial entities such as World View and Space Perspective will increas…

Development of an In-Progress Forecasting Model to Forecast Radiation Dose Rates Once a Ground-Level Enchancement has Begun Open
During major solar energetic particle events, radiation dose rates in Earth's atmosphere at aviation altitudes can increase by orders of magnitude relative to dose rates during quiet times in events known as Ground-Level Enhancements (GLEs…

The Variation of Radiation Effective Dose Rates and Single Event Effect Rates at Aviation Altitudes with Magnetospheric Conditions and Geographic Location Open
The geographic structure of radiation dose rates at aircraft altitudes in Earth's atmosphere during the irradiation of Earth by proton spectra from incoming solar particle events is examined using the recently developed MAIRE+ software. Co…

A New Model for Nowcasting the Aviation Radiation Environment With Comparisons to In Situ Measurements During GLEs Open
Significant increases to the atmospheric radiation environment are recorded by a network of ground level neutron monitors as ground level enhancements (GLEs). These space weather phenomena pose a risk to aviation via single event effects i…

Results from Testing Low-Cost, High-Performance Terrestrial Processors for Use in Low-Cost High-Performance Space Missions Open
There has been a significant and exciting increase in the use of microsatellites and cubesats in the past decade.\nHowever, it has proved difficult to scale up current cubesat avionics systems to enable larger, longer, more complex mission…

A Citizen Science Network for Measurements of Atmospheric Ionizing Radiation Levels Open
Historically, gathering data on atmospheric radiation levels during solar particle events has been difficult, as there is little or no time warning of events. Being able to accurately quantify radiation levels within the atmosphere during …
