Scientific paper

The period April 14 through 24, 2002 was distinguished by a several episodes of high geomagnetic activity and a significant solar energetic particle event. Energetic charged particles entered the atmosphere over a wide range of latitudes and particle energies. TIMED satellite observations exposed significant chemical changes, especially much increased NO densities, in response to those particle inputs. Energetic particle observations, electrons >30 to >300 keV and protons from 30 keV to >100 MeV, from the NOAA-15 and NOAA-16 satellites were analyzed during this period to provide a global inventory of the particle input on a 3-hour cadence for use in modeling the atmospheric response. This paper describes the analysis that was done to achieve this objective and presents examples of the results.
