a

SEP promptness is calculated as ST (SEP event start time) – PT (SXR peak time).

b

The locations of the associated flares were extracted from the NOAA/NASA SEP list. For those locations which are identified as “farside”, the flare data were extracted from references in the Table footnotes cf.

c

The locations of these behind-the-west-limb flares were extracted from the SEPServer Catalog (Papaioannou et al., 2014). For each of these events, there is no SXR peak time; the SEPServer catalog provides the start and end times of the radio Type III burst associated with the solar parent event.

d

The SXR peak and time of the associated flare of this SEP event was reported by Thakur et al. (2014); however, no location is mentioned. The location of this flare was extracted from the Solar Monitor (solarmonitor.org).

e

The location of this flare was extracted from the Solar Monitor (solarmonitor.org).

f

There is no reference about the location of this behind-the-limb flare. Regarding the SEP event on October 29, 2015, Augusto et al. (2016) and Miteva et al. (2018) reported that at 2:24–2:36 UT on October 29, 2015, respectively, the associated CME was observed in the coronagraph imagery LASCO C2 instrument in the south-west sector of the Sun. Since the associated solar region was # 12434 (as reported in the NOAA SEP list at S11) and this region was at W90 at 21:00 UT on October 25 (source: solarmonitor.org), the heliolongitude of the associated solar flare was ~W135 at the beginning of October 29 when the reported CME took place, assuming a differential 25.5-day solar rotation at S11.
