Description
The SecondaryCR model evaluates particle fluxes and spectra of secondary
e-, e+, mu+, mu-, gammas, protons, neutrons, Cherenkov light etc. at
different positions, altitudes and times in the Earth atmosphere.
We developed this model of secondary cosmic rays production in the Earth's
atmosphere in the previous studies. It is based on existing models evaluating
particles transport in heliosphere, magnetosphere and interactions of primary
cosmic rays with the atmosphere. For the evaluation at 1AU on magnetopause we
use results of HelMod model. Transparency of magnetosphere was obtained by
GeoMag model and finally secondary production in the Earth's magnetoshpere was
simulated by Corsika package.
The fluxes and spectra of neutrons and muons propagated to the ground
over the globe during 22nd and 23rd solar cycle were simulated. The results
are discussed in connection with neutron monitor measurements. Possibility
to evaluate a neutron monitor response function from the SecondaryCR model
simulations is discussed.
