Scientific paper

Data collected in June 1980 and 1982 using the Rome 12 NM-64 neutron monitor are reported. The measurements periods were selected to correspond with eight solar flare events in 1980, and 10 solar flare events in 1982, both of which were accompanied by gamma-ray and X-ray bursts. It is shown that placement of the monitors on the ground improved the accuracy of the solar energetic neutron measurements, particularly in high altitude locations (such as the Jungfraujoch in Switzerland), and in lower-midlatitude locations (such as Rome). Suggestions are offered for improving neutron monitor efficiency in the future.
