Scientific paper

An increase in the intensity of energetic particles associated with the passage of an interplanetary shock has long been referred to as an `energetic storm particle (ESP) event'. Such increases have been observed since the 1960's and the particles were generally thought to be either locally accelerated or trapped in the vicinity of the shock and transported with it. This general overview will describe the initial observations and theories of ESP events as well as the measurements that have led to our current understanding of the creation of these events. The relevance of ESP events to space weather as well as furthering our understanding of particle acceleration by shocks is also discussed.
