โœฆ Synopsis


We present a theory of filament eruption before the impulsive phase of solar flares. We show that the upward motion of the magnetic X-point tracing the filament eruption begins several minutes before the impulsive phase of the flare, where the explosive magnetic reconnection starts at the X-point magnetic field configuration located under the filament. No change occurs in the character of the motion of the X-point during the onset of the explosive magnetic reconnection. The upward speed of the X-point is about 110 km s 1 at the onset of the impulsive phase. We give an important condition leading to filament eruptions, which relate to the state of the current sheet under the filament, where the magnetic energy can be released.

Using a simplified form of the bremsstrahlung cross-section, we obtain an analytic expression for the intensity of electron-beam-produced hard X-ray emission with depth in solar flares. The results show that 'footpoint' emission is more likely than previously thought, and we discuss these results in
