โฆ Synopsis
We discuss the possibility of a discovery of current sheets by using their screening and emissive properties in the radio band. It is shown that the presence of a current sheet in the solar atmosphere leads to a depression of the radio brightness at some wavelengths and to its enhancement at shorter wavelengths. Spectral observations with sufficient angular resolution may give such characteristics of the sheet as its temperature, electron density, thickness and height in the solar atmosphere.

Cyclotron radiation (its frequency spectrum and polarization) of thermal electrons in a neutral current sheet is considered. It is shown that cyclotron radiation is able to escape only from a thin edge of the sheet where the magnetic field is practically homogeneous. Due to this, the frequency spect
