Abstract
We discussed the scale similarity (scaling) of solar proton time profiles in the 23rd solar cycles. In order to define of scaling availability, the approximation by the scaling function of time profiles of all significant events of the 23rd cycle was carried out for proton fluxes with energy ranges 10–30, 30–50, 50–60, 60–100, >100 MeV according to GOES data (a total of 185 time profiles were approximated). It is shown, that such approximation of time profiles is valid for the vast majority of events of the 23rd cycle (at least in the growth phase of proton fluxes), which allows you to determine with high precision the time of proton injection in solar proton events.
