SEET Radiation Flux
Computes the radiation flux at each electron and proton energy level. The energy levels are determined by the computational mode. There will be data items for electrons and protons at each of their respective energy levels. Valid when using NASA or CRRES models. Valid for vehicles whose central body is earth.Available for these objects: LaunchVehicle, Missile, Satellite
Type: Time-varying data.

| Mag field intensity | MagneticField | Real Number | The magnitude of the magnetic field at the vehicle's location. |
| Dipole L-shell parameter | Unitless | Real Number | The L value for the field line passing through the vehicle's location computed using the dipole approximation to the magnetic field. For a dipole field line, the L value corresponds to the distance, measured in earth mean radii, at the point on the field line at the magnetic equator. (For a dipole field, this point is also the furthest extent of the field line from the earth.). |
| McIlwain L-shell parameter | Unitless | Real Number or Text | A measure that indicates a particle's drift shell in the magnetic field at the vehicle's location, as defined by Carl McIlwain (J. Geophys. Res. 1961). The value is computed as a function of several magnetic invariants along a field line and thus its computation requires field line tracing. It is not strictly a constant over the entire field line. In cases where the field line is close to the dipole field line (i.e., the field line traced using only the dipole component of the magnetic field model), the value will be close to the dipole L-shell parameter. |
| McIlwain Abs(L-shell) parameter | Unitless | Real Number or Text | The absolute value of the McIlwain L-shell parameter. |
| B/Beq | Unitless | Real Number or Text | The ratio of the magnetic intensity at the vehicle's location to the minimum magnetic intensity along the field line through the vehicle's location. |
| Beq | MagneticField | Real Number or Text | The minimum magnetic intensity along the field line through the vehicle's location. The minimum value occurs at the magnetic equator, at the furthest extent of the field line from the earth. |
| Lat | Latitude | Real Number or Text | The detic latitude (i.e., angle between the detic subpoint's surface normal vector and the XY plane.). |
| Lon | Longitude | Real Number or Text | The detic longitude (i.e., angle from the X-axis locating the projection of the detic subpoint's surface normal vector onto the XY plane.) Longitude increases in the direction found using the right-hand rule about the Z-axis. |
| Alt | Distance | Real Number | The altitude value (i.e., magnitude of the relative position vector between the object and its detic subpoint). |
| 15 day Avg Ap | Unitless | Real Number | The average of the daily Ap value, over the previous 15 days. The Ap value is set according to the settings on the SEET radiation panel. When using a flux file to set Ap, the 15 day average is computed for each day and then the table of values is interpolated to determine the value at the given time. |
