Abstract
The acceleration of charged particles to relativistic energies is one of the most interesting features of cosmic physics. Calculations by Schatzman (1963) have shown that, under conditions valid in the chromosphere of the sun, a hydromagnetic shock wave (that may be connected somehow with the energy release mechanism during a solar flare) may serve as a source of particle acceleration, leading to the right order of magnitude for the total intensity and a power law spectrum.
