“…The flux of secondaries builds with increasing shielding depth until it reaches a peak, known as the Pfotzer maximum, after which the average particle energy is below the threshold for new particle production and the cascade is steadily absorbed. In Earth's atmosphere, the Pfotzer maximum occurs at the altitude of 15-26 km, depending on latitude and solar activity level (Bazilevskaya et al, 2008).…”

“…For more detail on the production and dynamics of SEP and GCR and their interactions with shielding matter (be it planetary atmospheres, surface, or spacecraft pressure hulls), interested readers are directed to recent reviews provided by, for example, Amsler et al (2008b), Bazilevskaya et al (2008), and Ferrari and Szuszkiewicz (2009).…”
