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...
