Description
The June 3, 1982 flare produced a wealth of observed gamma-ray, energetic particle, and neutron emissions. It is shown that the predictions of an interaction model developed for the June 3 flare by Murphy, Dermer, and Ramaty (1987) compare favorably with new data on the time-dependent flux on pion-decay emission from this flare. It is concluded that the particles which produced the bulk of the pions could have the same origin as the particle observed in interplanetary space from the June 3 flare. 23 references
