Scientific paper

Observations of rapid particle acceleration in solar flares are reviewed. The theory and simulation of ion acceleration in a large amplitude magnetosonic wave is described. It is shown that relativistic protons can be produced in a time much shorter than one second, if large amplitude magnetosonic waves are excited in coronal magnetic tubes in association with solar flares. Those protons can have very hard energy spectrum. The energy spectra of gamma rays generated through the decay of neutral pions are discussed.
