Gamma astronomy of the Sun and study of solar cosmic rays

A detailed discussion is given of the various nuclear reactions proceeding in the Sun's atmosphere under the influence of flare-accelerated particles. The role of such reactions in formation of the line spectrum and continuum of gamma-rays from the disturbed and quiet Sun is discussed. The gamma-ray fluxes in individual lines and in the continuum are estimated. The possibility of applying data on gamma-ray emission from the Sun to analysis of particle acceleration in solar flares and the conditions of their ejection into interplanetary space is analyzed.
