Abstract
Abstract
We describe the initial version of the Solar Particle Event (SPE) Threat Assessment Tool or STAT. STAT relies on elements of Corona-Heliosphere (CORHEL) and the Earth-Moon-Mars Radiation Environment Module (EMMREM), and allows users to investigate coronal mass ejection (CME) driven SPEs using coupled magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and focused transport solutions. At the present time STAT focuses on modeling solar energetic particle (SEP) acceleration in and transport from the low corona, where the highest energy SEP events are generated. We illustrate STAT’s capabilities with a model of the July 14, 2000 “Bastille Day” event, including innovative diagnostics for understanding the three-dimensional distribution of particle fluxes and their relation to the structure of the underlying CME driver. A preliminary comparison with NOAA GOES measurements is shown.
