We review the observations and theory relating to the role of energetic electrons in the solar flare, with particular emphasis on discriminating between "thermal" and "nonthermal" origins of these electrons. We discuss diagnostics in hard X-rays, especially those relating to the recent observations

The possibility is investigated that the plasma turbulence used in many recent models of the primary energy release and acceleration in solar flares should be detectable by radiation near the fundamental and second harmonic of the plasma frequency. Formulae are derived for fundamental emission due t
The thermal interpretation of solar flare impulsive phase hard X-ray emission requires rapid heating of a substantial coronal volume to very high temperatures. In this study we investigate the possibility of producing such heating by current dissipation, driven by a tearing instability associated wi
