THE recent discovery, by equipment carried in satellites and balloons, that the terrestrial atmosphere is frequently bombarded by solar protons of energies 30-300 MeV.1,2, has given rise to much speculation concerning the origin of these low-energy cosmic rays, and their relation to solar radio bursts, flares, and terrestrial disturbances. In this communication we seek to elucidate these problems from a consideration of radio spectral observations of the Sun. The radio data were obtained at the Harvard Radio Astronomy Station, Fort Davis, Texas, with sweep-frequency receivers3 covering the range 25-580 Mc./s. The equipment scans the entire frequency-range three times per second, and a continuous record of solar radio bursts has been obtained from sunrise to sunset for the past three years.
