Scientific paper

Armstrong et al. (1978) have observed a unique series of bursts with an unusually high content of Z greater than 2 particles and a high degree of collimation from the direction of the sun. The bursts were observed only with the CPME (Charged Particle Measurement Instrument) on Imp 8, but not with the CPME on Imp 7 nor with the ULET (Ultralow Energy Telescope) on Imp 8, whose response characteristics matched those of the CPME on Imp 7. The present comparison of the measurements made with the CPME and ULET cast doubt on the correctness of the reported observations.
