spacepy.irbempy.get_AEP8

spacepy.irbempy.get_AEP8(energy, loci, model='min', fluxtype='diff', particles='e')

will return the flux from the AE8-AP8 model

Parameters:

- energy (float) : center energy in MeV; if fluxtype=RANGE, then needs to be a list [Emin, Emax]

  • loci (Coords) : a Coords instance with the location inside the magnetosphere

    optional instead of a Coords instance, one can also provide a list with [BBo, L] combination

  • model (str) : MIN or MAX for solar cycle dependence

  • fluxtype (str) : DIFF, RANGE, INT are possible types

  • particles (str): e or p or electrons or protons

Returns:

- float : flux from AE8/AP8 model
