Henry B. Garrett was born on February 15, 1948 in San Francisco, CA. He was raised in Roswell, NM, graduating from Roswell Senior High School in 1966. He received a B.A. degree in physics (phi beta kappa, magna cum laude) in 1970 and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in space physics and astronomy from Rice University in 1974. He subsequently spent 6 years in the US Air Force before joining the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology in 1980. Col. Garrett retired from the Air Force Reserves after 30 years in 2002. He is currently a Principal Scientist in the Office of Safety and Mission Success. Dr. Garrett is a Member of AIAA, AGU, and AAS. He has published 4 books and has over 135 publications in the areas of space environments and their effects on space systems.
Abstract
Since the discovery of the Earth’s van Allen radiation belts in the first days of the space program, modeling of the trapped radiation environment surrounding the planets has been an important topic of both scientific and... [ view full abstract ]
