Scientific paper

We review the observations and theory relating to the role of energetic electrons in the solar flare, with particular emphasis on discriminating between “thermal” and “nonthermal” origins of these electrons. We discuss diagnostics in hard X-rays, especially those relating to the recent observations of the SMM and HINOTORI satellites. We also briefly address the response of the atmosphere to energy input in the form of high energy electrons, in particular through the diagnostics of both the Fe Kα feature and optically thin transition region lines such as 0V. Finally, we discuss the relative roles of electron and proton heating in γ-ray flare events.
