Abstract
The solar steady emission in gamma rays is due to the interactions of Galactic cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere and with the low-energy solar photon field via inverse Compton scattering. The emission is sensitive to the magnetic field nearby the Sun and to the cosmic-ray transport in the magnetic field in the inner Solar System. Modeling the inverse Compton emission in the presence of a magnetic field is, therefore, crucial to better interpret the observations. In a previous work, we have presented a comprehensive calculation of the secondary productions due to the collision of cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere in the presence of magnetic fields. In this paper, we present a general approach to calculate the (anisotropic) inverse Compton scattering in a 3D Monte Carlo simulation, also in the presence of magnetic and electric fields. After a short review of the scattering process of photons with electrons, examples of inverse Compton emission are presented, including the predictions for the Sun.
