Galactic cosmic ray transport methods: Past, present and future

Wilson, J. W. / Townsend, L. W. / Shinn, J. L. / Cucinotta, F. A. / Costen, R. C. / Bodavi, F. F. / Lankin, S. L.

The developement of the theory of high charge and energy (HZE) ion transport is reviewed. The basic solution behavior and approximation techniques will be described. An overview of the HZE transport codes currently available at the Langley Research Center will be given. The near term goal of the Langely program is to produce a complete set of one-dimensional transport codes. The ultimate goal is to produce a set of complete three-dimensional codes which have been validated in the laboratory and can be applied in the engineering design enviroment. Recent progress toward completing these goals is discussed.
