Available models
• De facto standard models: NASA AP-8 and AE-8– Advantages of the NASA models:
• Widespread usage (heritage)• Full spatial coverage and energy range
– Disadvantages of the NASA models:• Represent radiation environment of the 60’s and 70’s• Static models (but probably ok for long time averages)• Contamination by Starfish electrons
• Other models:– CRRESPRO, CRRESELE– NOAAPRO– POLE– SAMPEX/PET

Replacement of AP-8 and AE-8
• New models do not have sufficient spatial and/or temporal coverage and/or energy range
• Incomplete energy range can lead to misleading effects estimations

Standardisation efforts
• COSPAR Panel for Radiation Belt Environment Modeling (PRBEM) http://wwwe.onecert.fr/craterre/prbem/
• NASA working group meeting:– Focus efforts on selected regions of space and energy ranges to
expedite AP-8 and AE-8 replacement
– POLE model for GEO
– SAMPEX/PET+NOAAPRO for LEO protons
– ONERA/LANL GPS modelling for MEO
• RERMM study: use data from different satellites + Salammbô numerical simulation to produce ‘ad hoc’ models
