Title: Cosmic Rays and Space Weather: Interactions and Implications
Speaker: Mihailo Savić,
Institute of Physics Belgrade

Abstract:
Cosmic-ray physics may not strictly fall under the umbrella of space
weather, but it is deeply
interconnected with it, sharing significant overlaps in phenomenology,
instrumentation, analysis
techniques, and related disciplines. One of the most evident connections
is the modulation of
cosmic rays by heliospheric phenomena driven by solar activity.
Variations in the Sun’s magnetic field, solar wind, and transient
disturbances—such as coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and solar energetic
particle (SEP) events—alter the flux of cosmic rays reaching Earth.
Consequently, cosmic-ray detectors serve as valuable tools for studying
space weather, providing indirect yet critical insights into solar and
interplanetary conditions. This is particularly relevant for assessing
space weather effects on the near-Earth environment and predicting
potential hazards to infrastructure and human activity.
Beyond their utility as space weather proxies, cosmic rays also exert a
direct, though subtler,
influence on Earth’s environment. At high altitudes, cosmic rays
contribute to radiation exposure, affecting airline crews, frequent
fliers, and, more critically, astronauts in space. Their interactions
with the atmosphere produce secondary particles that can impact
biological systems and electronic instrumentation, posing challenges for
high-altitude aircraft, satellites, and space missions. Furthermore,
cosmic rays have been associated with various climate-related and
geophysical effects.
Given these multifaceted connections, this talk will present key areas
of interest in cosmic-ray
research, the analytical methods and techniques developed, and their
contributions to a broader
understanding of space weather phenomena. Integrating cosmic-ray studies
with space weather research enhances the ability to monitor and predict
space weather impacts, improves the understanding of cosmic ray-induced
effects on Earth’s environment, and refines methodologies applied in
both fields.
