Angular proton distributions measured by Proba-V/EPT and their Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion Angular proton distributions measured by Proba-V/EPT and their comparison to AP8 and IRENE/AP9 Stanislav Borisov, Sylvie Benck, Mathias Cyamukungu Center for Space Radiations, Earth and Life Institute, Université catholique de Louvain (UCL/ELI/CSR), Place Louis Pasteur, 3, B-1348 Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion The instrument Proba-V with EPT onboard was launched on 7 May 2013 into a sun-synchronous polar orbit at ~820 km altitude The EPT is oriented WEST when in daylight and oriented EAST when in eclipse M. Cyamukungu et al., IEEE TNS, vol. 61, no. 6, pp. 3667-3681, December 2014

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion The off-pointing measurements Off-pointing done in regions where no East-West effect is observed 2 campaigns to measure angular distributions of protons at various positions in the SAA: from June 2013-January 2014 (P1) from December 2017- February 2018 (P2) Objective of the off-pointing measurements in 2017: to better characterize the performances of EPT after its recalibration in summer 2014 to extend the angular distribution study to regions of higher L and B

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion Proton angular distribution in the SAA At -56°±2° longitude, -20°±2° latitude, 828 km altitude (centred at L=1.27 and B=0.165 G). Measured count rate as a function of the boresight orientation counts prediction based on the best fit PADmodel (F=J0sinn(a): search for n and J0 that best fits the data given the efficiency matrices calculated for a set of anisotropy factors n and b) The inset shows: Badhwar-Konradi scaling factor for the RP. normalized PAD of the form sinn(a) with n =25 normalized PAD of the form sinn(a) with n =18 shape of AP9 pitch angle distribution for 40 MeV protons. Borisov et al., IEEE TNS, vol. 61 Issue: 6, pp3371-3379, Dec. 2014

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion Proton spectra in the SAA AP9 (V1.05.001) unidirectional flux at 90° for 40 MeV (median): 44 #/cm2/s/sr/MeV (factor x ~7) !! Steepness of PAD ?? Omnidirectional flux divided by 4: 9.2 #/cm2/s/sr/MeV Single proton spectrum measured by the EPT on Nov. 17th, 2013. Note that here the differential spectra were extracted using a method that assumes isotropic flux in the half-hemisphere facing the instrument aperture. This method allows measuring the average flux of protons over the EPT ≤52° FOV. The same method was applied to measure the average fluxes over the RPS 26° FOV.

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion Bin 1: LON [-58°, -54°] and LAT [-26°,-22°] Significant FOV deterioration for measurements up to DAM 3  Discard those measurements from the analysis  DAM3  DAM4 Red: P1 Blue: P2 P1 : All energies P2: E > 92 MeV  Bin 2: LON [-64°,-60°] and LAT [-34°,-30°] Bin 3: LON [-34°,-30°] and LAT [-24°,-20°]  Analysis only for E > 92 MeV

Conclusion The analysis: Check of the quality of the minima found by the TMinuit class in the Root framework  Draw CHi2 map WBK = BK-MAX parameters from Trend-3 Report, 1996 (Kruglanski and Lemaire) n = 20-25 To get the unidirectional flux at 90° in #/cm2/s/sr/MeV: do J0/DE

Conclusion The comparison: ___ AP9 uni 90° mean (v1.50.001) ___ AP8 uni 90° (= omni/4p * WBK ) [-26°,-22°] LAT, [-58°, -54°] LON [-34°,-30°] LAT, [-64°,-60°] LON [-24°,-20°] LAT, [-34°,-30°] LON

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion

Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 Introduction Former PAD data New PAD data Comparison AP8 & IRENE/AP9 SSA EPT rad. mod. Conclusion Summary: Despite FOV degradation due to noise increase in front sensor, analysis of PAD proton data is still possible for E>92 MeV New anisotropy factors for proton flux distribution have been obtained for different positions in the SAA: n ~ 20-25 Earlier measurements from Fischer et al. reported n values of ~12 for L=1.3-1.4 for E=5.6 - 46 MeV based on a completely different approach. The mean unidirectional fluxes at 90° from Irene/AP9 overestimate the one from EPT by a factor of about 2-3 while showing a similar PAD shape.
