Scientific paper

The flux of neutrons to be expected from an acceleration model in which relativistic protons are present is investigated. Consequences of such a model include the production of observable quantities of boron by spallation reactions of the neutron flux and high-energy gamma-ray production by the central engine. For a typical interstellar magnetic field, the present model implies that the energy of the gamma rays will be reradiated in the form of X rays.
