High-energy (>40 MeV) Proton Intensity Enhancements Associated with the Passage of Interplanetary Shocks at 1 au

We analyze periods with elevated >40 MeV proton intensities observed near Earth over a time span of 43 yr (1973–2016) that coincide with the passage of interplanetary (IP) shocks. Typically, elevated proton intensities result from large solar energetic particle (SEP) events. The IP shocks observe...
