We solve the energy equation for the high-temperature (coronal) component of flare plasma for two models of energy input: (i) direct collisional heating by a beam of suprathermal electrons, and (ii) ohmic heating by the beam-neutralizing reverse current. We discuss the regimes where each case is app

We have analysed X-ray spectra of 13 solar flares as obtained by the Bent Crystal Spectrometer (BCS) on the Solar Maximum Mission. In particular, we have examined the observed ratio of Tve/Tca where TFe and /-ca are the temperatures obtained from the Fexxv and Caxlx spectra, respectively. In order t
Solar X-ray observations from balloons and from the SMM and HINOTORI spacecraft have revealed evidence for a super-hot thermal component with a temperature of > 3 • 107K in many solar flares, in addition to the usual 10-20 • 106 K soft X-ray flare plasma. We have systematically studied the decay pha
At the very start of the impulsive phase of two solar flares the temperature derived from medium-energy (~ 16 keV) X-ray countrates was observed to rise abruptly, by several times 10 7 K above the temperature derived from low-energy X-ray (~ 7 keV) countrates. The difference between the two temperat
