Scientific paper

Data on intensity variations of solar protons and alpha particles, as well as galactic cosmic rays, are analyzed which were obtained by the Venera 11 and 12 probes from September 1978 through March 1979. These data indicate a high level of solar activity and numerous events in the interplanetary medium. Proton flux spectral-intensity and anisotropy profiles, alpha-particle intensity profiles, and galactic-cosmic-ray intensity profiles are used to investigate the events detected in the interplanetary medium and associate them with specific active processes on the sun. Three particle-intensity increases are examined, and the experimental results are compared with models for particle propagation and active processes in the interplanetary medium.
