Possibilities for the storage of energy in coronal electric currents in different magnetic background field configurations are investigated in the framework of the solar flare energy build-up model of Van Tend and Kuperus (1978), The results are compared to characteristics of filaments and X-ray loo

The magnetic field configurauon for an isolated, nearly circular sunspot has been obtained from measurements at some 100 points in the spot. The observations are compared with theoretical models for the field configuration of an isolated, axially-symmetric sunspot. The results support the Sehltiter,
It is argued that differential rotation of the photospheric magnetic fields will induce currents in the corona. The work done against surface magnetic stresses will increase the energy content of the coronal magnetic field. The electrical conductivities are high and the foot points of field lines mo
