Abstract

UH researchers have significantly improved the calibration of the MARIE by simulating its response to energetic protons using FLUKA. Analysis of MARIE data shows that the intensity of solar energetic particles depends strongly on how well the observation point is connected magnetically to the site at which the particles are accelerated.
