Abstract :
In this work we present the development of the electron Slot Region Radiation Environment Model (e-SRREM). e-SRREM is a data-based statistical model that describes the trapped electron fluxes in the slot region between the inner and the outer electron radiation belts. For a user-defined mission orbit and duration, the model provides energetic electron fluxes determined by confidence levels.
