Event Rate Calculations

Event rates were calculated for LEO (ISS) and GEO environments by combining CREME96 orbital integral flux estimations and simplified SEE cross-sections according to methods described in Heavy Ion Orbital Environment Single-Event Effects Estimations application report. We assume a minimum shielding configuration of 100 mils (2.54mm) of aluminum, and “worst-week” solar activity (this is similar to a 99% upper bound for the environment). Using the 95% upper-bounds for the SEL, SEB/SEGR, and SET, the event rate calculation for the SEL, SEB/SEGR, and SET are shown in Table 9-1, Table 9-2, and Table 9-2, respectively. It is important to note that this number is for reference since no SEL, SEB/SEGR, or SET events were observed.
