The interactions of cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere produce secondary particle which can reach the Earth. In this work we present a comprehensive calculation of the yields of secondary particles as gamma-rays, electrons, positrons, neutrons and neutrinos performed with the FLUKA code. We also estimate the intensity at the Sun and the fluxes at the Earth of these secondary particles by folding their yields with the intensities of cosmic rays impinging on the solar surface. The results are sensitive on the assumptions on the magnetic field nearby the Sun and to the cosmic-ray transport in the magnetic field in the inner solar system.

A 3D Monte Carlo calculation of the inverse Compton emission from the Sun and stars in presence of magnetic and electric fields
A 3D Monte Carlo model of inverse Compton scattering that includes magnetic and electric fields predicts that the solar gamma-ray halo is brighter and more peaked toward the Sun than earlier line-of-sight calculations found.

Angular Distribution of Gamma Rays Produced in Proton-Proton Collisions
A new FLUKA-based database and Python tool give the joint energy and angular distribution of gamma rays from proton-proton collisions between threshold and 100 GeV, with an approximate fit formula.
