Solar Energetic Particles : A Modern Primer on Understanding Sources, Acceleration and Propagation / / by Donald V. Reames.
This open access book serves as a concise primer introducing the non-specialist reader to the physics of solar energetic particles (SEP). It systematically reviews the evidence for the two main mechanisms which lead to the so-called impulsive and gradual SEP events. This second edition contains two...
