Dear colleagues,

We would like to bring your attention to the COSPAR-22-D1.3 Scientific Event on the Understanding and Predicting Solar Energetic Particle Events Across the Heliosphere that will take place in July 2022 at Athens, Greece during COSPAR 2022 44th Scientific Assembly (https://www.cosparathens2022.org/).

Session’s id: https://www.cospar-assembly.org/admin/sessioninfo.php?session=1042

Abstract submission deadline: 11 February 2022 [this Friday]

Description: The study of Solar Energetic Particles (SEP) and their impacts on Earth and other planets has made significant progress in the last decade due to: (a) an armada of spacecraft delivering observations from different vantage points within the heliosphere; (b) high performance numerical simulations and (c) extensive analysis efforts. These advances enable the detailed study of SEPs from their birth and acceleration in solar eruptive events to their acceleration, injection and transport in the interplanetary space. They can also be used for the prediction of SEPs.

In this session, we invite contributions on models and observations of SEPs, covering their initiation by solar eruptive events, acceleration, injection, transport and prediction of their occurrence and corresponding characteristics at Earth and other planets. The session focuses on key developments that address SEP forecasting at different time scales.
