The updated GLE alert system by ANEMOS

Ground level enhancements (GLEs) of cosmic radiation are the result of solar energetic particles (SEPs) arriving at the Earth, potentially causing major damage to technological systems, but also posing a threat for human health. Intense SEPs, such as the GLE events, can influence the radiation exposure of aircrafts and consequently increase the radiation dose on human crew, but also have an impact on satellites and affect the design of space missions, i.e electronic devices onboard the satellite platforms etc. Therefore, predicting such events is challenging and one of the most important aspects of space weather research. In this work the updated GLE Alert++ System of the Athens Neutron Monitor Station (A.Ne.Mo.S.) implemented by the Athens Cosmic Ray Group of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA) is being presented. Moreover, the innovations of the updated system in relation to the previous version of the GLE Alert Plus are introduced. Finally, the most recent and the first of solar cycle 25 GLE event, GLE73, is discussed. This event was registered by several stations of the worldwide ground-based neutron monitor network. An accurate alert was issued successfully by the ESA R-ESC federated product GLE Alert Plus, as well as by the updated GLE Alert++ System of the NKUA/A.Ne.Mo.S. It should be emphasized that GLE Alert++ signal by NKUA/A.Ne.Mo.S. was issued 45 minutes earlier than the one issued by GOES satellites
