Scientific paper

The current state of Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) observations above ≡1 MeV/nucl. is examined and compared to gamma-ray observations to assess the degree to which current understanding of the solar flare process can explain the observations and to delineate directions for future research. The particle acceleration appears to be due to either Fermi-type stochastic processes or flare-generated shock waves, but the available data can not yet distinguish between these two mechanism. Large SEP events generally show no gamma-ray emission and may be examples of shock acceleration in the corona. Gamma-ray line emission events are often associated with small, 'electron rich' SEP events.
