A new solar flare heavy ion model and its implementation through MACREE, an improved modeling tool to calculate single event effect rates in space

A new solar flare heavy ion model has been developed to support Space Station Single Event Effects (SEE) evaluations. It shows good agreement with previous flare data, and is implemented through an improved version of the CREME code.
