I just discovered about solar storm named "Carrington Event"; I'd like to know how such a solar storm could affect my PC today.
I found some publications:
http://www.bu.edu/csp/EMMREM/papers/carrington.pdf
http://engineering.dartmouth.edu/~Simon_G_Shepherd/research/Shielding/docs/Townsend_03.pdf
1859 solar storm:
http://www.solarstorms.org/SS1859.html
How can I determine if the "shielding" provided to my Pentium by my case would be enough to prevent it to burn up?!?
Is it possible to determine a "radiation curve" for Carrington event, in terms of rad(Si) vs g/cm^2 ?
