Scientific paper

The 2003 October 28 solar flare was observed at high energies by RHESSI and Integral and by the Tsumeb neutron monitor. Relativistic electron bremsstrahlung, nuclear deexcitation gamma-ray lines and continuum, the 0.511 MeV positron-annihilation line, the 2.223 MeV neutron-capture line, pion-decay emission, and neutrons were observed. This remarkably-wide range of observable quantities offers a unique opportunity for simultaneously establishing a number of parameters associated with solar-flare emission from accelerated ions, providing information not only about the acceleration process but also about the physical conditions of the flaring loop. We review the high-energy emission theory and the procedure developed for analyzing such flare data. We discuss the results of applying the procedure to the October 28 flare and compare them with results from other flares.
