The physical conditions in a stationary flow of the Petchek type, allowing reconnection between flux emerging from below the solar photosphere and a preexisting magnetic field, are discussed. It is shown that, when rising in the solar atmosphere, the reconnection region has at first a rather low tem
Quasi-steady high-temperature current sheets are an energy source during the 'main' or 'hot' phase of solar flares. Such sheets are shown to be stabilized with respect to the tearing instability by a small transverse component of magnetic field existing in the sheets. \* Send offprint requests to B.
