Variability of the Intensity Ratios, Protons/Alphas, and Alphas/Medium Nuclei during Solar Particle Events,

Abstract

A systematic study of the intensity ratios of protons to alpha particles and alpha particles to nuclei with Z > or = 3 during nine major solar particle events during the period June 1968--June 1969 (Table I) has been made using the data from the University of Iowa particle detector system on the lunar orbiting satellite Explorer 35.
