The Reuven Ramaty High-Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) has detected nuclear gamma-ray line emission from at least eleven solar flares over the past three years. These gamma-ray lines are produced when flare-accelerated ions collide with the ambient solar medium. In this paper, we concentrate on the energy content and time profiles of accelerated ions and electrons. Ion spectral information is derived from suitable line ratios. We also compare the fluxes and timing of gamma-ray emission and high-energy electron bremsstrahlung emission. Finally, for the larger flares, we investigate the temporal variability of the nuclear de-excitation lines as well.
