Scientific paper

A description is presented of observations of energetic particles emitted by solar flares into interplanetary magnetic loop-like structures during two different events. In one of these events, the IMP-7 spacecraft detected particles which were injected into an apparently preexisting 'magnetic loop' during the onset of a solar flare particle event. The energetic particles appear to bounce between two magnetic mirrors. During the second event, the spacecraft entered a magnetic field regime where the energetic particle intensities had already reached a characteristic angular distribution indicative of a stably trapped population. Observations of the evolution of the angular distributions of the energetic particle intensities during the solar events reveal the occurrence of unusual particle anisotropies.
