RAM‐SCB Runs on Request at CCMC

Abstract The Ring current–Atmosphere interactions Model (RAM) with Self‐Consistent magnetic (B) field (SCB) combines a large‐scale kinetic model of ring current plasma with a three‐dimensional (3‐D) force‐balanced model of the terrestrial magnetic field. RAM‐SCB simulates the evolution of major ion...

description Abstract The Ring current–Atmosphere interactions Model (RAM) with Self‐Consistent magnetic (B) field (SCB) combines a large‐scale kinetic model of ring current plasma with a three‐dimensional (3‐D) force‐balanced model of the terrestrial magnetic field. RAM‐SCB simulates the evolution of major ion species (H+, O+, and He+ by default) and electrons as a function of azimuth, radial distance, energy, and pitch angle. Simulation outputs include the Dst index, and pressure and differential flux of the modeled species, thus providing benefit as a science code and to inform surface charging hazard within the model domain. Version 2.2 of this open‐source simulation code has now—as of 8 August 2023—been made available for Runs‐On‐Request via the Community Coordinated Modeling Center.
