Parameters of the flare and surrounding medium and their evolution during 20 January 2005 solar event. Journal of Physics: Conference Series Volume 409, Issue 1, 2013, Article number 012204

Basing on the data of AVS-F apparatus from SONG-D detector onboard CORONAS-F satellite, we have studied the extreme solar event of January 20, 2005 used the 2.223 MeV, 4.44 MeV and 6.13 MeV γ-lines temporal profiles. By the statistical modeling method we calculated the temporal profile of 2.223 MeV line too. Calculations have been performed in assumption of Bessel type of accelerated particles energy spectrum, different 3He content in the region of nuclear reactions and several density models of the solar atmosphere. Comparisons of the results of modeling with observational 2.223 MeV AVS-F/SONG-D data reveal the increasing of the ratio of 3He concentration to 1H one during the flare from 2× 10-5 at the rise phase of the gamma-ray flux up to 2× 10- 4 at the decay one. During the same period the spectrum became harder and the density of solar atmosphere increased too. Averaged over full time of 2.223 MeV γ-emission concentration ratio of 3He/1H is equal to (1.40±0.15)×10- 4, also the density model with enlarged density up to 2×1017 cm-3 in the lower chromosphere and through the whole photosphere is realized. Besides, we have estimated the spectral index αT that is close to 0.1 for accelerated protons in the range of 1-100 MeV. Using the AVS-F gamma-rays spectral data in the wide range up to 140 MeV, we have obtained the spectral index of s=2.5±0.1 in the case of power law spectrum for energies more than 300 MeV.
