Changes in the solar wind’s isotope component, due to interaction between solar flare particles and the photosphere

Аннотация

Possible mechanisms responsible for changes in the solar wind’s isotope component caused by interaction between solar flare protons and helium isotopes with photospheric nuclei are considered. Depth profiles of the rates of ⁶Li, ⁷Li, ⁷Be, ¹⁴C production in the solar atmosphere are simulated using the GEANT4 software package. It is concluded that anomalous isotopic compositions of the solar wind relative to the average values can form during the coronal mass ejections.
