Cosmic Rays as a clue constraint in Exoplanet Habitability

Cosmic Rays irradiance on exoplanets play an important role in habitability. Specially, atmospheric shielding is a key parameter as it determines the flux of radiation on planetary surfaces. In this project, we estimate the flux of cosmic rays for diverse selected exoplanets in their habitable zones to evaluate their potential habitability. We consider different atmospheric configurations to simulate the interactions of Cosmic Rays and obtain their flux at the surface. These preliminary results will help us to better understand the role of Cosmic Rays in the emergence of life.
