Location of a source of main acceleration of relativistic particles during the flare on 14 July 2000
Abstract
We determine a location of a source of a main acceleration of relativistic particles during the flare on July 14, 2000, adopting that the time of acceleration coincides with a burst of the hard linear and continuum gamma-radiation. The process of this effective acceleration starts when one of flare ribbons reaches the large spot of the group, as it follows from the TRACE data. An estimation shows that the source of acceleration locates on the height of 15-20 thousands of km above the photosphere. Comparison these results with those for other large flares allows us to conclude that during almost 30 powerful events in the last three cycles an additional effective "accelerator" of a moderate scale turns on in diluted regions with large magnetic fields and their gradients.
