We report about PHOEBUS (PHysics Of Events BUrsted by the Sun): a proposal for solar physics and space weather investigation with LISA (Laser Interferometer Space Antenna). Galactic and solar cosmic-ray particles with energies larger than 100 MeV(/n) penetrate and charge the LISA test masses. Spurious forces occur between the test masses and the surrounding electrodes mimicking gravitational wave signals. This process constitutes one of the major sources of acceleration noise for LISA. Silicon particle detectors will be placed on board the LISA-PF and LISA missions to monitor the overall energetic incident cosmic-ray fluxes. These telescopes can be also used to carry out a map of shock accelerated Solar Energetic Particle (SEPs) fluxes associated with evolving Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) at different steps in longitude. We discuss the role of protons, helium nuclei, galactic heavy nuclei and solar ions. We aim to contribute to the COST724 (European CO-operation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research) action inside WG1/WP13000 developing appropriate simulations of the dynamics of CMEs by using space-based data and theoretical models.
