Iron-to-oxygen abundance ratios measured during solar energetic particle (SEP) events are often found to be strongly energy dependent. We suggest that such behavior can be explained by rigidity-dep endent diffusion effects in that the enhancement or depletion of the Fe/O ratio with increasing energy depends on whether loweror higher-rigidity particles are better confined to the shock region. We apply a simple model to 36 large SEP events and find good results for events in which the measured Fe/O ratios are simply increasing or dereasing with energy but not for the many events that have both behaviors.
