On Monday morning, April 30, 2012, observations with the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph onboard HST had been suspended when segment A of the COS FUV XDL detector experienced an excessively high count rate. ... However, the available data was inadequate to determine if the transient event seen at the start of the anomaly was due to some external source, such as the passage of a very high energy cosmic ray, or if it was instead due to a malfunction within the COS FUV detector...

... LWN.net FAQ . ... Read-copy-update (RCU) is a mutual exclusion technique which can operate without locking most of the time. It can yield significant performance benefits when the data to be protected is accessed via a pointer, is read frequently, changed rarely, and references to the structure are not held while a kernel thread sleeps. The core idea behind RCU is that, when the data requires updating, a pointer to a new structure containing the new data can be stored immediately. ...

... Magnetic Storms . ... Cosmic Rays . ... Energetic Particles . ... Solar fast Particles . We cannot observe the way the distant universe accelerates cosmic rays or produces energetic photons, but acceleration processes also occur on our Sun , though on a much more moderate scale. ... That is why such events are often missed by cosmic ray detectors near the equator, where the lowest energies are excluded by the Earth's magnetic field. ... Should we be concerned about solar energetic radiation? ...
