FORBUSH DECREASE EFFECTS ON RADIATION DOSE RECEIVED ON-BOARD AEROPLANES

摘要

Doses received on-board aeroplanes during deep Forbush decreases (FDs) have been recently measured and published. Using an operational model of dose calculation, the effects on aviation dose of the FDs observed from 1981 to 2003 using neutron monitors are studied and a simplified method to estimate dose variations from galactic cosmic ray variations during FDs is derived.
