The present review has the objective to cover major developments in American research related to solar energetic particles, both observational and theoretical, taking into account the period from late 1978 to late 1982. It is pointed out that particular progress has been made in the area of solar energetic particle composition with respect to elemental, isotopic, and the distribution of charge states. This progress is primarily the result of improved instrumentation available at a time of higher solar activity. An important aspect of solar particle studies is to understand the propagation of particles from the vicinity of the sun through interplanetary space to wherever the observing instruments are located. Almost all mathematical models for the transport of solar cosmic rays are derived in some sense from the same general Boltzmann or Vlasov equations. Attention is also given to advances related to an understanding of coronal propagation, and acceleration and injection processes.
