Abstract
We report Solar Orbiter observations of six recurrent solar energetic particle injections in 2022 March 3−6 at ∼0.5 au. All but one were associated with jets emanating from a plage near a large sunspot in active region 12 957. We saw large jets in injections with high 3He and Fe enrichments and minor jets in injections with no or lower enrichments. Furthermore, the event with the highest enrichment showed a more compact configuration of the underlying photospheric magnetic field. The higher fluences as well as harder spectra were seen in the event with a simultaneous jet and wider eruption. However, in this case, the energy buildup time in the source might be required to produce such spectra. Extreme-ultraviolet images from Solar Orbiter revealed a number of intersecting loops at the base of jets not seen from 1 au that might be a precondition for the recurrent events.
