โฆ Synopsis
A study is made of several ATM flares, to investigate the effect of soft X-ray heating at chromospheric levels. It is shown that the amount of energy released in Lya and Lyman continuum emissions, and their spatial and temporal behavior, in compact flares correspond to what is expected from model calculations. An additional source of heating, which could be heat conduction, has to be postulated to explain ribbons of enhanced La and C II A1336 ~ emission in large flares. As expected, the effect of X-ray heating is more important in small compact flares than in large ones.

The estimates of quiescent and flare time temperatures of soft X-ray emitting regions on the Sun are obtained for flares observed during March--August 1967 from X-ray observations in two soft X-ray bands, 2-12 It (Explorer-33 data) and 8-12 A (OSO-3 data).
