Formation, Propagation, and Decay of Coherent Pulses of Solar Cosmic Rays
D. Ruffolo, T. Khumlumlert
Abstract
We have performed numerical simulations of the interplanetary transport of solar cosmic rays. The particles form a coherent pulse within 0.01 AU after their injection. The gradual decrease of a pulse's speed and anisotropy can be understood in terms of an equilibrium between pitch-angle scattering and focusing. The results should be useful for estimating times of particle injection.
