Magnetospheric access of solar particles and the configuration of the distant geomagnetic field, volume 2

A summary is provided of all proton events observed with OGO/4 and observed flux profiles for several events. Pertinent data are indicated relating to the orientation of the interplanetary magnetic field. The events whose profiles are presented are divided into three classes: EDP events (normally associated with co-rotating features), solar flare events, and events having characteristics of both EDP events and flare events (class C events). A description of these classes of events and the criteria used to distinguish between EDP events and flare events are discussed. In addition, the 1 December 1967 EDP event and the 2 November 1967 solar flare event are discussed in some detail. Accompanying the profiles of each event is a brief list of notable observational features of the event. Events are presented chronologically.
