Study of non-thermal photon production under different scenarios in solar flares. 1: scenarios and formulations

In order to study the overall phenomenology involved in solar flares, it is necessary to understand their individual manifestation before building a corresponding description of the global phenomenon. Here the concern is with the production of x and gamma rays in solar flares. Flares are initiated very often within the closed magnetic field configurations of active centers. Accordingly when beta = kinetic energy density/magnetic energy density approximately 0.2, the magnetic trap configuration is destroyed within the time scale of the impulsive phase of flares ( 100 s). A first particle acceleration stage occurs during this phase as indicated by impulsive microwave and hard x-ray bursts. In some flare events, when the field strength beta is very high, the broken field lines may close again, such that later, in the course of the flash and main phases more hot plasma of very high conductivity is created, and so, the field and frozen plasma expand outward, as the kinetic pressure inside the closed loops increases. The magnetically trapped particles excite strong Alfven wave turbulence of small transverse scale
