Scientific paper

It is shown that annihilation of positrons produced by p-p and p-alpha collisions was responsible for the short strong gamma burst recorded during the primary maximum of the flare observed on Mar. 28, 1958. The radio emission at centimeter and decimeter wavelengths from the flare is identified as the synchrotron radiation of relativistic decay positrons. The data indicate that prior to and following the maximum of strong flares, the particle spectrum generated is relatively soft, whereas during the maximum itself, there occurs a hardening of the spectrum, accompanied by a powerful gamma burst.
