Scientific paper

Robotic and human exploration of the solar system poses the challenge to model and eventually forecast the plasma and energetic particle environment throughout the inner heliosphere. This talk will describe the recently developed Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) that combines numerical models of the solar corona (the global structure is determined by synoptic magnetograms), magnetically driven solar eruptions, the inner heliosphere out to Saturn's orbit, solar energetic particles, the global magnetosphere, the particle drift physics controlled inner magnetosphere, the radiation belts, the ionospheric electrodynamics and the upper atmosphere and ionosphere into a high performance coupled simulation. This powerful simulation tool is presently capable of running faster than real-time from the Sun to Earth and it will be further developed into a space weather forecasting tool for the Exploration initiative. Particular attention will be paid to predicting solar energetic particle spectra and fluxes throughout the inner heliosphere. The SWMF is capable of simulating the acceleration and transport of energetic particles together with a self-consistent description of interplanetary transients that generate and accelerate the SEP population.
