Paper Abstract

In view of the endorsement of ATHENA as the future large space mission to explore the Hot and Energetic Universe scientific theme recently selected by ESA, we summarize here some aspects of the interplanetary radiation environment that will require further investigation in the new phase of assessment studies of background and radiation damage for the ATHENA focal plane instrumentation.
