		| Abstract: | 
		In the context of interpreting non-thermal hard X-ray
 emission and γ lines emanating from the footpoints of flare loops, most
 contemporary flare models assign a fundamental role during the flare energy
 release, transport and deposition to the high energy non-thermal particle
 beams. In this contribution we concentrate on modelling of the spectroscopic
 properties of chromospheric flare emission in optical hydrogen lines
 generated due to the bombardment of the chromosphere and photosphere by
 neutral beams with power-law spectra. In order to obtain an estimate of
 the neutral beam flare heating in the solar atmosphere we produced a simple
 model describing the propagation and thermalisation of neutral beams. We
 compare the neutral beam flare heating with the flare heating produced by
 corresponding pure electron and proton beams. Further we compare the
 contribution functions for Hα line obtained for neutral and electron
 beam heating. |
