Scientific paper

A coronal propagation model which includes convective transport of particles near the flare as well diffusion and centrifugal drift at large solar-longitudes is examined. This model is used to analyze data on solar cosmic ray (SCR) spectra for a series of solar proton events. The following consequences of the model are illustrated on the basis of the August 22, 1958 event: (1) a clear picture of SCR spectral evolution during coronal propagation, (2) a flattening of the ejection spectrum in comparison with that of the source, (3) an east-west asymmetry of the azimuthal distribution and time profile of particles with a given energy, and (4) near agreement between the ejection spectrum and the source's spectrum within the limits of the fast propagation region.
