Predicting Proton Event Time Characteristics from Radio Burst Data,
Abstract
For events originating on the Western hemisphere, the delay before onset of the solar flare protons is shown to be well correlated (r about 0.80) with the rise time of the associated radio-burst at 2-3 GHz or the rise time of the h sub alpha flare. The peak flux time of the protons is shown to be very well correlated (r about 0.90) with the delay before onset, and fairly well correlated (r about 0.70) with the flare or radio rise time. These results allow a prediction of the proton event time characteristics from real time radio burst data. (Author)
