Scientific paper

Polycarbonate and glass detectors exposed on Apollo 16 to the 17 April 1972 solar flare were used to measure the spectrum of iron-group cosmic-ray nuclei down to ~0.02 MeV/nucleon. The enrichment of iron relative to lighter nuclei previously seen at higher energies increases markedly in this new, very-low-energy region. The energy spectrum of carbon and heavier nuclei inferred from sensitized Lexan polycarbonate reveals the enrichment of iron relative to carbon and heavier nuclei down to ~0.03 MeV/nucleon.
