| Description | The elemental composition of energetic nuclei from seven major solar flare events were measured wit the cosmic ray detector systems aboard the Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft. The energetic nuclei abundances differ significantly from those of photospheric material. They are enhanced relative to the photonsphere by a factor which is the ratio of abundance of an energetic nuclei species (relative to oxygen) over the corresponding abundance of photospheric material. This factor is common to all events and has a nonmonochromatic characteristic dependence on nuclear charge. This factor is roughly ordered by first ionization potential into two groups of elements, metallics and volatiles. |
