Albedo gamma-rays from cosmic ray interactions on the solar surfaceWe estimate the flux of gamma-rays that result from collisions of high energy galactic cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere. The high energy photon flux should be observable by the GRO, although details of our results are sensitive to assumptions about cosmic ray propagation through the magnetic fields of the inner solar system. We also estimate the neutrino and neutron fluxes resulting from the same process.
