**Magnetic fields in coronal and interplanetary space play a critical role in the propagation and storage of energetic particles from the flare site to 1 AU. The current investigation is designed to determine if the detailed configuration of the coronal magnetic fields below 2.5 R⊙ has a measurable influence on the escape of particles to 1 AU, can account for the observed broad longitudinal distribution of proton flares, and can provide a realistic site for storage of energetic particles.
