Estimate of economic impact of atmospheric radiation storm associated with solar energetic particle events on aircraft operations

Abstract A solar energetic particle (SEP) event generates a shower of secondary generated particles in the Earth’s atmosphere down to lower altitudes to cause an atmospheric radiation storm (ARS). The high-energy secondary particles cause additional radiation dose at altitudes where aircraft flies....
