NMDB - the European neutron monitor database Karl-Ludwig Klein, ludwig.klein@obspm.fr for the NMDB consortium

NMDB data Providers Initially (2008-09, FP7) 26 stations from Europe and some neighbouring countries (Asia) Historical data and real-time data (1 min resolution) - depending on station Since 2011: 10 further stations, Bartol Res Inst, Univ Delaware Perspective: Australia, South-Africa, Japan, America

NMDB data Illustrations Long term trends (solar modulation) Individual events: Forbush effects & ground level events (GLE) Easy-to-use tool for data visualisation and retrieval (ASCII) 11 years 1 hour 11 hours

High energy particles from the Universe Detection at the Earth Neutron monitor : Production of neutrons by secondary particles in a Pb ring Detection of the neutrons in the counter tubes Despite the name, the primary particles detected by a neutron monitor are most often protons or heavy nuclei !

High energy particles from the Universe Detection at the Earth Why a worldwide network of neutron monitors ? Spectroscopy using the geomagnetic cutoff Measurement of the angular distribution of the incoming particles using the asymptotic directions at the different sites. Illustration: 2005 Jan 20, Ker-guelen Island and Terre Adélie - an initial pulse of highly collimated protons (TAd), followed by ~isotropic protons.

Solar energetic particle events Parent solar activity: flares and CMEs At the Sun: flare & CME after K.-L. Klein., Sol Orbiter Workshop, Athens, ESA-SP “Flare acceleration”: particles accelerated in complex magnetic configurations in the corona (particles radiating R, HXR, radio; particles escaping along open field lines towards IP space). B=0 CME shock acceleration: particles accelerated at the bow shocks of fast CMEs (mainly SEP=particles detected in situ); corona, IP space. Shock B=0

Solar energetic particle events Protons from some MeV to several GeV SEP (solar energetic particles) event (protons 10 MeV - some GeV) At tens of MeV (GOES): duration > 1 day, solar particles + peak (at LE) as shock approaches Earth (energetic storm particle event; shock acceleration near Earth) At GeV (neutron monitors): short duration (tens of min - a few hrs), no signature of shock acceleration in IP space. Rare events: the most energetic protons accelerated in the solar atmosphere. 3 days SEP SEP Shock wave & CME @ Earth Shock wave & CME @ Earth http://www.nmdb.eu

Solar energetic particle events Scenarios of acceleration 3 days Scenario: from the Sun to the Earth Flare, particle acceleration CME, particle acceleration (shock) ICME, particle acceleration ICME at Earth, shielding of galactic cosmic rays http://www.nmdb.eu

Neutron monitors and solar energetic particles Summary and outlook NMDB provides data from all European, some Asian and some US-American neutron monitors. Time resolution up to 1 min, some in real time (space weather applications) Data belong to the providers, but are free for use in scientific research. The project continues to work 3 years after the end of the FP7 funding. Hopefully further extension in the future (other American providers, South Africa, Australia, Japan ?) Special arrangements available for people who need data on a regular basis. Contact: Christian Steigies, University of Kiel, steigies@physik.uni-kiel.de or questions@nmdb.eu Development of further tools (SEPServer, follow-up FP7 project ?) to provide physical data on relativistic solar particles as a complement to future space missions (Solar Orbiter, …)
