Is the suns rays gamma rays?

No, the Sun mostly emits visible light rays. A small amount of gamma rays might be emitted, but they would be insignificant. Inside the Sun, gamma rays are produced but they never escape in that form. The super-heated gases around the sun in the chromosphere emit mostly higher energy xrays, UV rays but also some gamma rays. Natural gamma rays sources are thought to be the most energetic events in the Universe. Although Supernovae seem to be the source of some, others are still somewhat mysterious.
