In association with the solar flare of November 28th
1998 (GOES X-class was X=3.3), solar neutrons are possibly detected by
a new neutron telescope located at Yangbating (4300m a.s.l) in Tibet. The
time profile of this event was examined by a Monte Carlo simulation. If
we assume that neutrons were produced with a hard spectrum at 5h32m30s
UT, the ten seconds time profile of this event can be explained well. Although
detail simulations are necessary to affirm neutron observation, however
this is first evidence that solar neutrons are detected at large solar
flares, but less than X<8. An interesting feature of this event is seen
that ions were accelerated faster than electrons. In the conference, we
present combined results of Yokoh, Nobeyama Heliograph and Mitaka magnetometer,
together with Monte Carlo results.
