Scientific paper

The proton scattering mean free path for the May 7, 1978 solar flare event was deduced using data from the IMP 7 satellite and ground-based neutron monitors. The scattering mean free pahts of solar flare protons in the rigidity ranges 195-396 MV and from about 1.5 to 5 GV were found to be 1.7 + or - 0.1 AU and 3.9 + or - 0.4 AU, respectively. A value of scattering mean free path of about 4 AU at 3 GV deduced for the May 7, 1978 event is the largest value determined from a solar cosmic ray event.
