Indirect determination of the energy spectra of particles precipitated in the lower ionosphere associated with solar proton events

Electron density profiles previously measured using the phase and amplitude of VLF radio signals during outstanding solar proton events (SPE), together with the associated energy spectra of protons and electrons simultaneously measured by satellite, allowed the calculation of the electron-ion pair p...
