Fig. D.5.

In these two panels, the proton flux is plotted as in Fig. D.2 with the exception of the Alfvénic speed Va for which different values are assumed as indicated. When diffusive reacceleration vanishes, we expect the proton flux to be given by the analytic solution uloss. The relative difference between the numerical result u (direct inversion) and uloss is calculated with the low-energy boundary prescription L3. As Va increases from 1 m s−1 to 2.5 km s−1, u becomes more stable and wiggles disappear. The transition occurs for a critical value of Va ∼ 1.75 km s−1. The number of bins per decade of energy is Ndec = 50.
