BackForward Variable: Cosmic ray neutron flux spectrum

Definition
Full name Cosmic ray neutron flux spectrum
Definition Flux density energy spectrum of neutrons from the Sun or as component of the cosmic radiation.
Measuring Units neutrons·(cm2 s sr MeV)-1 Uncertainty Units %
Horizontal Res Units degrees Vertical Res Units
Stability Units % (Stability /decade)

 

Comment: A measure of the plasma and radiation environment that could present a hazard to satellites and humans in space and that is also responsible for ionospheric radio absorption. The horizontal resolution is counted in degrees of arc along an Earth orbit, i.e. 90 degrees correspond to 4 measurement points.
