  In addition to their anomalous abundances, 3He-rich solar energetic particles
(SEPs) show puzzling energy spectral shapes varying from rounded forms to power
laws where the later are characteristics of shock acceleration. Solar sources
of these particles have been often associated with jets and narrow CMEs, which
are the signatures of magnetic reconnection involving open field. Recent
reports on new associations with large-scale EUV waves bring new insights on
acceleration and transport of 3He-rich SEPs in the corona. We examined energy
spectra for 32 3He-rich SEP events observed by ACE at L1 near solar minimum in
2007-2010 and compared the spectral shapes with solar flare signatures obtained
from STEREO EUV images. We found the events with jets or brightenings tend to
be associated with rounded spectra and the events with coronal waves with power
laws. This suggests that coronal waves may be related to the unknown second
stage mechanism commonly used to interpret spectral forms of 3He-rich SEPs.
