Large gradual solar energetic particle events
Abstract Solar energetic particles, or SEPs, from suprathermal (few keV) up to relativistic ( $$\sim $$ ∼ few GeV) energies are accelerated near the Sun in at least two ways: (1) by magnetic reconnection-driven processes during solar flares resulting in impulsive SEPs, and (2) at fast coronal-mass-e...
