Observations of some type IlI radio bursts in the hectometer and kilometer wave range are compared with theoretical predictions. It is shown that the burst emission must be near the plasma frequency in the region between 10 Re and 50 R| in order to be consistent with the observed steep rise in brigh

โฆ Synopsis
A two-component scheme for the generation of type III fundamental radiation is proposed. The first component of the fundamental arises at a plasma level co L ~-co, because of the Rayleigh scattering of the plasma waves into electromagnetic radiation. The other component arises at co L --co/2 because of the decay of the first component into plasma waves and the subsequent rescattering of the plasma waves into electromagnetic radiation cos ~ 2(co/2). By its properties (location, directivity, polarization) the second component is essentially the same as the second harmonic radiation produced by a stream of fast electrons at co)_ ~ (co/2). This scheme is used to solve the main problems (localization and directivity of the source, polarization of type III fundamental) of the harmonic theory of type III solar bursts.

Different forms of pairs of type III bursts have been discussed in the literature. We report here a new aspect revealed by high time resolution radioheliography. In some groups of these bursts, each element appears to be split into two components. These pairs recur with a characteristic time, and in
