The Physics of Solar Energetic Particles
Donald V Reames
Solar energetic particles (SEPs) are produced in two fundamental ways: at magnetic reconnection sites in solar jets and at collisionless shock waves driven by fast coronal mass eje…

Solar Particle Acceleration
Donald V. Reames
High-energy particles may be accelerated widely in stellar coronae; probably by the same processes we find in the Sun. Here, we have learned of two physical mechanisms that dominat…

Seeds and Sequences of Element Abundances in Solar Energetic Particle Events
Donald V. Reames
Solar energetic particles (SEPs) in the small "impulsive" events, primarily accelerated during magnetic reconnection in solar jets, have strong enhancements of the abundances of in…
