Low-energy solar positrons.

Abstract

Fluxes of solar particles, consistent with Kinsey's (1970) measurements and demodulated in a manner consistent with the cosmic-ray transport equations discussed by Gleeson and Axford (1967), are shown to be able to produce low-energy positrons in the solar atmosphere via unstable CNO beta-particle emitters. Computed positron fluxes are presented for various diffusion coefficient values and compared with measurements of Cline and Hones (1970).
