Scientific paper
Data from the Pioneer 10 and 11 missions to Jupiter and beyond are used in a study of solar flare accelerated particles at distances of several astronomical units from the sun. The intensity-time profiles out to at least 6 AU are consistent with mainly diffusive interplanetary propagation. The outer boundary of the diffusion region is thought to be beyond 10 AU, since no obvious effects of a free escape boundary were observed. Four solar particle events are discussed in detail. The events are interpreted in terms of a spherically symmetric propagation model which includes the effects of diffusion, convection, and adiabatic deceleration and which assumes that the particles are impulsively injected at the sun.
