Statistical Analysis of Extreme Electron Fluxes in the Radiation Belts
The main aim of this work is to study the frequency of extreme Space Weather events, in particular to analyse the tails of the daily averaged electron fluxes distribution function for different channels of energy between 0.249-1.192 MeV measured at ~ 600 km of altitude with the particle detector ICA...

The main aim of this work is to study the frequency of extreme Space Weather events, in particular to analyse the tails of the daily averaged electron fluxes distribution function for different channels of energy between 0.249-1.192 MeV measured at ~ 600 km of altitude with the particle detector ICARE-NG/CARMEN-1 on board argentinian polar satellite SAC-D. An extreme value theory was applied to estimate the maximum values of the electron flux in the outer radiation belt for different return levels. We found that the cumulative distribution function of the extreme electron fluxes presents a finite upper limit in (1) the core of the outer radiation belt for the lower energy channels and (2) in the inner edge of the outer radiation belt for energy channels larger than 0.653 keV. The results presented in this work are important to characterise Space Weather conditions. Copyright © International Astronomical Union 2018Â. |
