Abstract

The origin of solar energetic particle (SEP) events is an issue for the understanding of particle acceleration and transport in astrophysics, as well as for space weather. We outline some recent studies addressing from the observational viewpoint the relationship between interacting and escaping particles, conditions for particle escape from the Sun, and the interplanetary magnetic field configurations where the particles propagate.
