In order to study the propagation of solar cosmic rays in interplanetary space, a computer program has been developed using a Monte-Carlo technique to trace the histories of particles released impulsively at the sun. The particle-propagation model considers adiabatic deceleration during the convective and diffusive transport of the particles, and the model of the interplanetary medium incorporates a radially expanding blast wave which exerts a sweeping action on the particles and accelerates them through the first-order Fermi process. It is shown that energetic storm particle events cannot be simulated by assuming a pure sweeping action of the interplanetary blast wave, but that energization of the particles while reflected at the shock can explain many observed features of such events.
