Kinetic Modeling of Radiation Belt Electrons With Geant4 to Study Energetic Particle Precipitation in Earth's Atmosphere
Abstract We present a new model designed to simulate the process of energetic particle precipitation, a vital coupling mechanism from Earth's magnetosphere to its atmosphere. The atmospheric response, namely excess ionization in the upper and middle atmosphere, together with bremsstrahlung X‐ra...
