session 3

Title

Prediction and measurement of space weather conditions and impacts on space missions

Description

Space weather and its fluctuations strongly impacts space missions. Environmental conditions yield constraints at design phase, and important risks in the course of the mission. The evaluation of the average and worst case conditions to be met, and of their impact on missions and sub-systems are thus of prime importance. This session will encompass the following topics: Space weather: -flight measurements; - physical processes; - prediction of average or worst case conditions. Environment effects on missions: -ground testing; - flight experiments and lessons learnt; -modelling and prediction.
