The energy spectra and charge distributions of heavy ions (using iron as an example) accelerated at the front of a parallel shock are computed numerically. The Fe stripping by thermal electrons and protons during ion acceleration and propagation in plasma is taken into account. The computational results are compared with measurements of the mean charges qFe and energy spectra of iron in gradual solar-energetic-particle events. The theoretically derived Fe charge distributions could be of importance in light of new ACE spacecraft data which are expected to be obtained in the near future.
