A team of scientists and engineers, led by the High Energy Space Environment Branch at the Naval Research Laboratory developed CREME96. This work has been supported by NASA's Space Environments and Effects (SEE) Program and the Office of Naval Research.
All of the models and capabilities of CREME96 are superior to the corresponding elements of the old CREME code (reference 1). Comparisons to on-orbit data (reference 2,3) have demonstrated the accuracy of the model improvements in CREME96. CREME96 was extensively beta-tested by volunteers over the Internet for a period of approximately 18 months prior to final release on 30 June 1998. CREME96 should therefore be used instead of previous versions of CREME. However, since use of the old CREME code is often a contractual requirement, it is the responsibility of the user to obtain permission from his/her sponsor(s) before using CREME96 for space-system design.
Since completion of the CREME96 development, only very limited funds are available to maintain the CREME96 website and to provide user support. Users with questions about the applicability and limitations of CREME96 are therefore urged to first of all consult the website's on-line documentation. Further information about the CREME96 model improvements can be found in peer-reviewed publications. Questions which are not adequately addressed in these sources may be directed to the NRL Principal Investigator at allan.tylka@nrl.navy.mil.
