A Comparative Study of Ground-level Enhancement Events of Solar Energetic Particles by Leon Kocharov, Alexander Mishev, Esa Riihonen, Rami Vainio, Ilya Usoskin

“…We compare the two GLEs with GLE 59 (2000 July 14) analyzed by Klein et al. and with the deka-MeV nucleon ^−1 proton and helium data from the ERNE instrument on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory spacecraft. The comparison indicates that a single solar eruption can produce more than one component of solar energetic particles, differently contributing at different energies and locations.…”
