Modelling electrified railway signalling misoperations during extreme space weather events in the UK

Abstract Space weather has the potential to impact ground-based technologies on Earth, affecting many systems including railway signalling. This study uses a recently developed model to analyse the impact of geomagnetically induced currents on railway signalling systems in the United Kingdom during...
