Scientific paper

The coupled evolution of solar-flare protons and interplanetary Alfven waves based on the quasi-linear theory implies an order of magnitude amplification (damping) in the outward (inward) propagating left helical resonant Alfven waves at less than 0.4-AU helioradius, if the proton intensity at 1 AU exceeds 300 particles/(sq cm s sr MeV) at 1 MeV, and the initial wave intensities give mean free paths of more than 0.5 AU. The wave growth significantly retards solar-particle transport, and has implications on the nature of solar-wind turbulence.
