Intense flare activity on the Sun is known to generate an enhanced flux of particles which are known to be accelerated to energies of at least hundreds of MeV. There is considerable interest in identifying Solar flares with particles accelerated to GeV and higher energies and to study them in detail for better understanding of the acceleration processes occurring on the Sun. An array of 50 unshielded thin scintillation detectors has been operational since April 2000, at the surface above the L3 detector at CERN as part of the L3+Cosmics experiment. Data on the counting rates of these detectors have been examined for possible enhancement in the flux of particles time coincident with the intense Solar flare of 14 July 2000. Details of observations and their implications for the emission of high energy ˜ 10 GeV particles during intense Solar flares are discussed.
