Solar particle events (SPEs) generally constitute the most severe environments in which space systems must operate. These events are produced by interplanetary shocks driven by coronal mass ejections. The high intensity of relatively high energy protons means that there can be a significant contribution to the error rate due to proton reactions. Solar heavy ions are more easily shielded than the galactic cosmic rays, so shielding analysis is significant. Xapsos has also demonstrated the solar particle events are completely random in time and that it is not possible to predict the time of occurrence and magnitude. The particles from a solar event penetrate through the proton belts.
