It is commonly anticipated that high-energy electrons play an important role for the wave emission in flare bursts. For instance, electrons with >100 KeV are considered to create microwave emissions through gyro-synchrotron process and hard x-rays may be due to bremstrahlung with >25 KeV electrons. However, electron acceleration mechanism itself is still in speculations.
