Re: [geo] Re: MCB/cirrus stripping with particle accelerators

2018-08-20 Thread Andrew Lockley
Thanks for your question, Oliver.

The reason to use a space based system is similar to the approach for earth
observation satellites - even coverage. A satellite in GS orbit can 'see'
roughly a third to a half of the world. Because the atmosphere is thin,
compared to the size of the earth, most beam attenuation is likely to occur
in the troposphere, where 75pc of the air is. That means a satellite
mounted system would only have to penetrate a few kms of thick atmosphere,
at most.

Crudely, I'm assuming beam range and power scale together. A kW system
gives you kms, MW gives you thousands of kms. (I said GW in an earlier
email, which would be the case if you relied on lossy accelerators for high
particle energy, not high density, as Russell helpfully pointed out.)

By contrast, a ground-mounted system would have to work over distances 3-4
orders greater. A ship-based system would be technically viable, but its
slow speed would inhibit its coverage, quickly reaching local saturation -
unless you used a high energy beam to reach 1000kms or so. A high-energy
system would need to be mounted on a ship the scale of an aircraft carrier
(which has a similar power output to a 747, although much more available as
electricity). A jet or balloon system would be plausible, but would have a
beam range of perhaps ten of kms (balloons) to hundreds of kms (large
jets), necessitating potentially millions of platforms to provide global
coverage.

I'm neither a satellite engineer, nor a cosmic ray expert - so multi-order
errors are inevitable in my reasoning.

Dear Andrew,

as I stated before, I have some doubt about observed relationships 
between cosmic ray and cloudiness and if real, the physics is very 
unclear. However I do not understand your post. If there is such an 
effect, then why would you want to shot these particles downward from 
space rather than upward from the surface. The objective would be to 
increase low-level cloudiness, wouldn't it ?


Regards,
Olivier
There appears to be some confusion here in terms of the numbers to 
use. Most of the particles are atomic nuclei (overwhelmingly 
hydrogen). These are therefore charged, and thus are substantially 
attenuated by the earth's magnetic field. I've been unable to 
determine the extent, from a quick Google.


Furthermore, a proportion of scattering attenuation occurs in the high 
atmosphere, where it's too dry to produce clouds. It may therefore be 
more effective to use lower-flying aircraft, which are less lossy by 
this mechanism - although they may have very limited beam range. 
Nevertheless, Google's project Loon shows that mass production of 
non-high altitude balloons is at least worthy of consideration - 
numbers can potentially overwhelm range disadvantages.


Finally, there's the issue of energy distribution. I've been unable to 
find a source that links particle energy to cloud CCN. The number peak 
at 0.3GEv may not be representative of an efficacy peak. Certainly, 
highly energetic particles are disproportionately effective, but it's 
not clear whether their numerical rarity makes them irrelevant, 
overall. There are significant technical issues with producing 
high-energy particles in orbit. Individual particles are travelling at 
near light speed, and they experience significant relativistic 
effects. It therefore requires serious infrastructure to produce them. 
That's impractical for a satellite. However, intermediate energy 
accelerators could be mounted on 747-type platforms, and full sized 
accelerators could be land based. One problem with very high energy 
particles is that they're *individually* dangerous. The highest energy 
particles have the energy of a baseball travelling at nearly 100kmh. 
You can't go shooting those at airliners.


Further thoughts welcome.

Cosmic rays are almost all protons, with an typical energy

that's the right energy for CCN, but we can tweak that later.

Creating artificial cosmic rays is possible, using a linear
particle accelerator. This is similar to an ion thruster, as
used in space probes.

To affect climate, you'd probably have to get densities of the
order of 1/s/sqm (more on that, later).

360 million square kilometers of ocean is 360tn sqm or
3.6x10^14sqm. You don't really want to send particles into
people, and the cleaner air over the oceans makes them more
effective.

A kilo of hydrogen contains 6x10^26 protons.

That means 1kg of H2 gives you enough material for 1.6x10^12s

material to do the job.

Re: [geo] MCB/cirrus stripping with particle accelerators

Dear Stephen,

Thank you for pointing this paper, I wasn't aware of it. The PDF is here:
http://orbit.dtu.dk/ws/files/126609957/Svensmark_et_al_2016_Journal_of_Geophysical_Research_Space_Physics.pdf
The paper is from 2016, so obviously couldn't be considered in the IPCC 
AR5. Let's see if AR6 has something else to say.


Svensmark had a similar paper in GRL (2009) which we cite in the AR5:  
"Svensmark et al. (2009) found large global reductions in the aerosol 
Ångström exponent, liquid water path, and cloud cover after large 
Forbush decreases, but these results were not corroborated by other 
studies that found no statistically significant links between the cosmic 
ray flux and clouds at the global scale (Čalogović et al., 2010; Laken 
and Čalogović, 2011). Although some studies found statistically 
significant correlations between the cosmic ray flux and cloudiness at 
the regional scale (Laken et al., 2010; Rohs et al., 2010), these 
correlations were generally weak, cloud changes were small, and the 
results were sensitive to how the Forbush events were selected and 
composited (Kristjánsson et al., 2008; Laken et al., 2009)."


Here I can see the signals are clearer, but still noisy. It would 
probably take an independent study to confirm the findings to convince 
the rest of the community. Also the physical mechanism behind it isn't 
clear. People have tried to increase aerosol nucleation manifold in 
their aerosol models and it doesn't change cloudiness because the system 
is very much buffered in terms of CCN. Pure speculation on my side, but 
I would like to be reassured to hear that there is no difference in how 
the electronics of the satellite instruments respond during Forbusch 
events as compared to the rest of the time.


Thank you again for pointing this, I'll try to discuss it with colleagues.

Best regards,
Olivier

Hello Andrew,

see section 7.4.6 of IPCC AR5 :
http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar5/wg1/WG1AR5_Chapter07_FINAL.pdf

The summary is

"Cosmic rays enhance new particle formation in the free
troposphere, but the effect on the concentration of cloud
condensation nuclei is too weak to have any detectable climatic
influence during a solar cycle or over the last century (medium
evidence, high agreement). No robust association between changes
in cosmic rays and cloudiness has been identified. In the event
that such an association existed, a mechanism other than cosmic
ray-induced nucleation of new aerosol particles would be needed
to explain it. {7.4.6}"

Cosmic rays cause cloud condensation nuclei. They are therefore
believed to affect cloudiness, and therefore climate. If we made
more cosmic rays, that would likely make it more cloudy. Whether
this was a warming or cooling effect would depend on whether it
was cirrus or cumulus clouds (NB, sometimes making cirrus
ultimately removes water, resulting in less cirrus)

Thanks, Russell. Do you have a citation for the power numbers for 
natural rays (although I've ignored the rarer, high-energy rays)? The 
numbers you've provided contradict my sources, which are many orders 
of magnitude lower.


For clarity, the comparator technology is an ion thruster, not a 
research particle accelerator. These have to be efficient, otherwise 
they'd impart a very large energy penalty on space probes.

but it would have some pretty significant effects on local
atmospheric chemistry - so probably not a good idea.
