Space environment (natural and artificial) — Model of high energy radiation at low altitudes (300 km to 600 km)

Environnement spatial (naturel et artificiel) — Modèle de radiations à énergie élevée à basses altitudes (300 km à 600 km)

Abstract / scope

ISO 17761:2015 describes the fluxes of charged particles for near-Earth space on base of the PAMELA experiment data. This International Standard can be used to calculate fluxes of protons with energy more than 100 MeV up to geomagnetic cut-off rigidity at low altitudes (300 km to 600 km). The main goal of this International Standard is determining the impact of energetic charged particle flux upon spacecraft instrumentation and astronauts.
