Scientific paper

The high energy solar proton event of October 19, 1989 had an atypical particle anisotropy during the initial phase, with the Deep River, Ottawa, and Goose Bay neutron monitors in the Eastern Canadian region recording the intensity increase about 25 minutes before comparable detectors in Europe and Western Canada. Using the asymptotic cones of acceptance for these neutron monitors, it is shown that this early onset in the particle intensity increase may be the detection of relativistic protons that are the decay product of solar flare-generated relativistic neutrons.
