Abstract Solar energetic particle events often consist of two components: a ‘prompt’ component of particles accelerated in the flare or by a coronal shock, and an ‘energetic storm particle’ component accelerated by an interplanetary shock. In events observed by two or more spacecraft the time-development of the proton spectrum, together with the analysis of the intensity and anisotropy time profiles, allows one to distinguish between these components.
