摘要
In the present work ionization profiles due to solar cosmic rays in the Earth's atmosphere are obtained. Recent simulations are carried out with CORSIKA 6.52 code using FLUKA 2006 and QGSJET II hadronic interaction subroutines. The energy deposit of proton induced cascades in the atmosphere is the main result of simulations. We consider vertical events. The atmosphere was divided into 1036 layers per 1 g/cm(2), which permitted good precision for longitudinal energy deposit estimation. The energy of the incoming protons is accepted 10, 20, 40 and 60 MeV. The ion pair production in the atmosphere is calculated according to the obtained ionization yield function Y, taking into account the steepness of solar cosmic ray spectrum.
