Abstract
It has been shown that high energy particle spectra, particle dynamics, and radiation in a flare loop are determined by wave-particle interactions. The electron-whistler interaction occurs under conditions of strong pitch angle diffusion that makes the particle distribution function isotropic. The flare loop electrons retain information about the particle source spectrum. The interaction of energetic ions with Alfven waves is characterized by strong, moderate, and weak diffusion. The time delays in hard X-ray and gamma-ray emission during one-step acceleration processes might be understood in terms of a trap-plus-turbulent propagation model. The density of precipitating particles is less than or equal to the trapping one. Radiation signatures of flare loop electrons are discussed.
