A function approximating the diffusional time profiles of the intensity of 21 increases of solar electrons with energies exceeding 30 keV and 40 keV, respectively, is presented. It is shown that the slow component of the increases is described well by the simple diffusion equation. Electron diffusion coefficients for the 30-40 keV range lie within the range 8 x 10 to the 20th sq cm/sec to 1.2 x 10 to the 22nd sq cm/sec; changes of the diffusion coefficient are related to changes in the number of particles injected in the event. For the slow component, scattering of electrons takes precedence over the collimating effect of the interplanetary magnetic field.
