摘要
Prior to the launch of ACE, He-3/He-4 ratios in He-3-rich solar energetic particle (SEP) events were typically reported at 10% or higher only from above a few MeV per nucleon because of limited instrument capabilities. However, with the new ULEIS instrument on ACE, we are able to explore the He-3/He-4 ratio below the 10% level and also at energy less than I MeV per nucleon. We have investigated a total of 45 He-3-rich (He-3/He-4 > 0.01 at 0.23 - 0.45 MeV per nucleon) SEP events from November 1997 to May 1999. We found the event average He-3/He-4 and Fe/C ratios are clearly correlated. This correlation suggests that the He-3 and Fe enrichments could be related and places further constraints on any He-3-enhancement models.
