Because of their already high energy, suprathermal particles likely serve as the source population for further acceleration at interplanetary shocks. The very low solar activity in 2007 and the recurrent corotating particle events make 2007 an ideal time period to study the abundance of non-flare associated, i.e. quiet-time, suprathermal particles. Using a maximum-likelihood method based on Poissonian statistics which is well adapted to deriving fluxes from small count numbers, we determine the fluxes of suprathermal particles in 2007. We will present results for CIRs, high-speed streams, slow wind, and solar wind dwells.
