NOx in the lower polar mesosphere, in mid February of 2004, more than 100 times normal. Using a middle atmosphere GCM we investigate whether solar proton events or subsequent associated aurorae can explain the NOx observations. We find that the solar proton events produce insufficient amounts of NOx...
