The ultimate space storm: characterization and modelling 6th EuropeanSpaceWeather Week 16-20 November, 2009 - Brugge, Belgium http://sidc.oma.be/esww6/ SPLINTER MEETING Room “Bach” 16:30-18:00 Contact: messerotti@oats.inaf.it ESWW6 Brugge BE M. Messerotti
ESWW6 Splinter Description Theoretically, the ultimate space storm can be defined as the set of most severe perturbative manifestations originated by the most unfavourable concurrent conditions at the Sun, in the interplanetary space and in geospace. In practice, the above definition has to be extensively and quantitatively detailed in terms of solar weather, interplanetary weather and geospace weather to asset the physical drivers and to evaluate the relevant effects. This project has been started in the framework of COST Action ES0803 "Developing space weather products and services in Europe", but it has to be expanded in order to reach its ambitious goals. In fact, the aim of this splinter meeting is to involve the interested communities in creating a scientific and operational framework to achieve the goal of quantifying via the present and forthcoming modelling tools the worst concurrent space weather effects ever experienced by technological and biological systems, as well as to produce 4D maps of such effects as a working tool for evaluating the maximum risk involved in the various geospace sub-domains and technological sub-systems. The splinter is organized as an open discussion, but short presentations on key topics/use cases suitable to stimulate the discussion are welcome. Key topics: Solar weather (Persistent, magnetically complex, productiveAR(s); Outstanding flares/Series of flares; SPE(s)/SCR; Gamma, X, EUV, UV, RadioOutburst(s); Halo/Earth-directed CME(s); FastSolarWindStreams); Interplanetary weather (Propagating perturbations identification and analysis); Geospace weather (Magnetic coupling; Perturbations; Effects in Magnetosphere-Ionosphere-Thermosphere-Troposphere-Ground); Advanced modelling tools.
