Ion and relativistic electron transport in solar flares

Recent models for the ion and relativistic electron transport in solar flare magnetic loops are reviewed, focusing on the ways in which the models handle loop structure, particle acceleration, and particle transport. Results are presented from Monte Carlo simulations of ion and relativistic ion transport. Consideration is given to results concerning the depth distributions of gamma-ray production, the attenuation of gamma-ray lines, the time dependences of the various emissions and the angular distribution of the bremsstrahlung.
