Contents

Data from the Helios 1 and 2 and the Prognoz 6 spacecraft are used to separate coronal and interplanetary propagation effects for two solar particle events on December 27, 1977 and January 1, 1978. The results confirm the concept of two different coronal propagation regimes. In both regimes electrons are transported more efficiently than protons. Possible explanations for the fast transport of electrons and the different behavior of electrons and protons are considered.
