Annual extraterrestrial radiation on a tilted surface. by MATLAB

Develop a computer program to calculate the 8760 hourly values of the extraterrestrial radiation on a fixed surface of any orientation and location. For latitude 43◦ (Madison, WI) what slope and azimuth angles maximize the annual incident extraterrestrial radiation?

Do you have any sample data to share?

[Walter Roberson]

No-one knows the answer to this. Measurements of high energy extrasolar neutrons and other neutral particles are very difficult to make. Progress is being made in measuring some kinds of gravitational radiation, but we are talking about a field where if four events were detected in a year, that fact would be grounds for two papers in Nature.

See Climate Data Toolbox for MATLAB, which contains code and references that are relevant to your task.

[Walter Roberson]

There is a lot that scientists do not understand about the thermodynamics of Hot Jupiters, or the number of those that exist, or their distribution. It is therefore not possible to calculate how much energy from them reaches Earth, so it is not possible to calculate the total extraterrestrial radiation the Earth receives.
