RT Journal Article T1 Impact of Ground-Level Enhancement (GLE) Solar Events on Soft Error Rate for Avionics A1 Hubert, Guillaume A1 Aubry, Sébastien A1 Clemente Barreira, Juan Antonio AB This article proposes to study the impact of ground-level enhancement (GLE) induced by extreme solar flares on the soft error rate (SER) for flight representatives to the world-air traffic. A GLE physical model was confronted to cosmic ray variations measured with neutron monitors during the GLEs 5 and 69. Based on said GLE physical model and single-event upset occurrence models, investigations were performed to assess the SER during these GLEs for a bulk 90-nm commercial off-the-shelf SRAM. The main conclusion is that the GLE impact must be considered in the risk assessment, which requires a physical description of the additional solar cosmic rays and a realistic consideration of the air traffic.
