This paper presents particle flux measurements (protons and electrons) obtained with the ICARE-NG detector on the JASON-2 orbit (1336 km alt., 66 incl.) for the period June 2008-Aug. 2010. At this altitude, the South Atlantic Anomaly is greatly broadened as compared to lower altitudes. Proton flux measurements are made in the range 27.5-290 MeV and electron flux in the range 1.6-3.6 MeV. A great care was taken to assess the influence of the satellite on the particle measurements. Comparison of measurements with the results of the AP8 MIN model are given for protons, taken into account environment anisotropy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
