Reply to comment by K.A. Duderstadt et al. on "Atmospheric ionization by high-fluence, hard spectrum solar proton events and their probable appearance in the ice core archive"
Claude M. Laird, Adrian L. Melott, Brian C. Thomas +2
Duderstadt et al. [2016b] comment that the Melott et al. [2016] study of nitrate formation by solar proton events (SPEs) and comparison with the ice core archive is "fundamentally…
Galactic cosmic rays on extrasolar Earth-like planets: II. Atmospheric implications
J. --M. Grießmeier, F. Tabataba-Vakili, A. Stadelmann +2
(abridged abstract) Theoretical arguments indicate that close-in terrestial exoplanets may have weak magnetic fields. As described in the companion article (Paper I), a weak magnet…
Atmospheric ionization by high-fluence, hard spectrum solar proton events and their probable appearance in the ice core archive
Adrian L. Melott, Brian C. Thomas, Claude M. Laird +2
Solar energetic particles ionize the atmosphere, leading to production of nitrogen oxides. It has been suggested that some such events are visible as layers of nitrate in ice cores…
A link between solar events and congenital malformations: Is ionizing radiation enough to explain it?
A. C. Overholt, A. L. Melott, D. Atri
Cosmic rays are known to cause biological effects directly and through ionizing radiation produced by their secondaries. These effects have been detected in airline crews and other…
Modeling high-energy cosmic ray induced terrestrial muon flux: A lookup table
Dimitra Atri, Adrian L. Melott
On geological timescales, the Earth is likely to be exposed to an increased flux of high energy cosmic rays (HECRs) from astrophysical sources such as nearby supernovae, gamma ray…
