Abstract

We have performed numerical simulations of the interplanetary transport of solar cosmic rays. The particles form a coherent pulse within ∼0.01 AU after their injection. The gradual decrease of a pulse's speed and anisotropy can be understood in terms of an equilibrium between pitch‐angle scattering and focusing. The results should be useful for estimating times of particle injection.
