Enhanced Proton Levels in Slot Region and Displacement Damage Effects on Solar Arrays
Abstract
Proton fluxes ten times higher than mission baseline are reported by the CEASE instrument on TacSat-4 since launch in September 2011. The NRL SCREAM code is used to compare the effects of proton spectra from both modeled and on-orbit measurements from the CEASE experiment.
