Scientific paper

Carbon, oxygen, and heavier nuclei have been observed below 8 MeV per nucleon during solar quiet times. We find that the C/O abundance ratio is 0.8+/-0.4, the N/O ratio is 0.4+/-0.25, and the differential energy spectra below 1 MeV per nucleon have the form KE-4.9+/-0.3. We infer from this spectral form that most of these particles are likely to be of solar origin. The large errors on the abundance ratio do not allow a decisive answer to the likely origin.
