Electron Bremsstrahlung

Electron Bremsstrahlung is a radiative process in which a charged particle, specifically an electron, emits electromagnetic radiation in the form of gamma rays when decelerated by the electric field of an atomic nucleus, distinguishing it from other radiation mechanisms by its origin in Coulombic interactions during non-thermal electron motion in solar flares.
