The delayed energetic particle event of June 6 - 10, 1979.
Abstract
Energetic particle observations carried out with the ISEE-3 Medium-Energy Cosmic Ray experiment during the flare event of June 6-10, 1979 are reported. An expanded time history of the He nuclei particle spectra is given, and particle trajectory angles are identified with respect to the earth-sun line. The backward flow of the particle stream following the shock was analyzed, and it is found that the shock continued to accelerate particles beyond 1 AU from the sun. Polar plots of the number of protons counted in each sector of observation are given with their corresponding magnetic field directions.
