SOLAR RADIO BURSTS AND LOW-ENERGY COSMICRAYS
The recent discovery, by equipment carried in satellites and balloons, that the terrestrial atmosphere is frequently bombarded by solar protons of energies 30 to 300 Mev is discussed. The origin of these low-energy cosmic rays and their relation to solar radio bursts, flares, and terrestrial disturbances are considered. An attempt is made to elucidate these problems from a consideration of radio spectral observations of the sun. (C.H.)
