Scientific paper

Only when the particles released by the sun during flares have energies greater than 0.5 GeV are the secondary particles generated through interactions in the upper atmosphere able to reach ground level. Six different ground-level events were detected by the superneutron monitor in Calgary in the period July to October 1989. The intensity of energetic particle fluxes during these events was high enough to be a potential hazard, especially for passengers in aircraft at altitudes of 10 to 15 km.
