Solar neutrons from the impulsive flare on 1982 June 3 at 1143 UTA transient flux of high energy solar neutrons from 50 MeV to about 1 GeV has been detected by the Gamma Ray Spectrometer (GRS) on the Solar Maximum Mission (SMM) satellite following an intense burst of high energy photons (less than 100 MeV) peaking at 1143:29 UT. The neutrons were also detected by the IGY neutron monitor on Jungfraujoch (Switzerland). In this paper the SMM GRS observations are summarized and compared with the Jungfraujoch neutron monitor data, and both the time dependent neutron flux at the earth and the neutron emission spectrum at the sun are estimated.
