This is a Small Business set-aside contract awarded by NASA to CFD Research Corporation, a small business specializing in engineering simulations and innovative designs. The $124,982 firm-fixed-price Phase I STTR contract is for developing a comprehensive modeling capability, called SPE4, to forecast solar particle events (SPEs) and their effects on space electronics. SPE4 will integrate state-of-the-art modules for probability forecasting of solar flares/coronal mass ejections, particle transport through the heliosphere, and radiation transport calculations to predict SPE-induced energetic particles and their effects. In Phase II, the team will interface the SPE4 framework with downstream codes to calculate single-event effects in electronics. This work supports NASA's efforts to mitigate risks from high-energy space radiation to equipment and astronaut health in its missions.
