Description
Measurements of cosmic ray isotope fluxes by spacecraft missions, such as
PAMELA, have generated interest in the study of solar modulation over changing
solar activity. These exceptional measurements provide an opportunity for
improved numerical modeling of the solar modulation of galactic cosmic rays
across a wide range of rigidity at Earth. In this study, a three-dimensional drift
model will be used to calculate theoretical spectra comparable to the solar cycle
24 minimum period of 2006-2012 observed spectra. This modeling would be
based on intrinsic parameters derived from comparing model computations to
data already collected by the spacecraft. The model is used to model global
spectra and at lower energies e.g., at 1 GeV,in order to study time-dependent
modulation.
