Low-energy cosmic rays are produced in solar flares and propagate into interplanetary space. The features of the propagation mechanism of these cosmic rays were examined, taking into account the results deduced from the theory of geomagnetic effect. The features of their incidence to the earth had impact-zone effects. G.M.T. effects, and seasonal variations. The relations between these low-energy cosmic-ray events and solar and terrestrial phenomena were examined in view of the observed data. Flares and type IV outbursts taking place on the western side of the sun seem to correlate these cosmicray events much better. The propagation mechanism of these low-energy cosmic rays into interplanetary space and the properties of magnetic clouds in that space are discussed. (auth)
