The momenta and start times measured from the TD diagrams in 3 seismic sources observed in the flare of 28 October 2003 are compared with those delivered to the photosphere by different kinds of high energy particles as well as by the hydrodynamic shocks caused by these particles. The energetic protons with energy power laws combined with quasi-thermal ones are shown to form hydrodynamic shocks deeply in a flaring atmosphere which deliver the required momentum to the photosphere within a measured timescale. The seismic waves observed in two sources associated with γ-rays can be explained by the momenta produced by hydrodynamic shocks caused by mixed proton beams and jets. The seismic wave in the source asociated with HXR only and delayed by 4 and 2 minutes from the first and second HXR bursts is likely to be associated with a hydrodynamic shock occurring from precipitation of a very powerful and hard electron beam possibly mixed with quasi-thermal lower energy protons.
