Abstract: | The ionic charge distributions of solar energetic particles (SEP) as observed in interplanetary space provide fundamental
information about the origin of these particles, and the acceleration and propagation processes at the Sun and in interplanetary
space. In this paper we review the measurements of ionic charge states of energetic particles in interplanetary space and
discuss their implication for our understanding of SEP sources, and acceleration and propagation processes. |
