AbstractThe dynamics of solar particle events provide a direct link to the understanding of properties of wave–particle interactions, and to the nature of the solar wind fluctuations. Depending on their energy, the often simultaneously observed electrons, protons and ions interact with different wavenumber ranges of the fluctuations, and are sensitive to various aspects of the dynamical nature of the solar wind turbulence. In general, the evolution of particle events is also sensitive to the spatial variation of the transport parameters between the Sun and a few AU. Together with in situ plasma and magnetic field observations this information can be used to extrapolate the properties of transport parameters into the more distant Heliosphere. Recent developments in the theory of parallel transport of energetic particles, and examples for the modelling of solar particle events and the derivation of transport parameters are considered. A dynamical quasi-linear theory is presented which gives special emphasis to the geometry and dynamic nature of the fluctuations, and which is able to provide particle mean free paths solely from observed plasma parameters, in good agreement with those derived by the modelling. Possibilities to apply the above results to the study of other energetic particle processes in the Heliosphere are discussed.
