✦ Synopsis


In the second phase acceleration process the close time coincidence between the gradual hard X-ray burst and the type II shock wave is presumed due to shock acceleration of the electrons producing the gradual phase burst. We point out that recent studies of gradual hard X-ray bursts place the source heights well below the heights of 2-10 x 103 km traversed by the shock. Gradual phase energetic electrons therefore cannot be accelerated in the shock but must be produced elsewhere. We propose the loop systems of long decay X-ray events (LDEs) as the sites of the gradual phase electron production.

Gradual enhancements which repeatedly appeared 20-50 min after the onset of an impulsive burst were observed in microwaves and hard X-rays. The observed characteristics of the gradual enhancements are (i) the similarity of time profiles in both the frequency range of 17 GHz to 160 MHz and the energ

In a Note Added in Proof in , the statement is made that "As pointed out by Spicer (private communication), estimate [of flare electric fields] is off by four orders of magnitude for his conditions because ... charges move so as to short out most of this field (cf. Drake and Lee, 1977)." As Smith (
