We present a theory of filament eruption before the impulsive phase of solar flares. We show that the upward motion of the magnetic X-point tracing the filament eruption begins several minutes before the impulsive phase of the flare, where the explosive magnetic reconnection starts at the X-point ma

The equilibrium positions of coronal currents are determined. It is shown that the fact that the photosphere has a very large inertia as compared to the corona, poses an important boundary condition at the surface. Electric currents flowing in a coronal active region show a tendency to concentrate a
Studies of'disparitions brusques' in solar cycles 19 and 20 (to 1969) indicate that such events occur frequently. Approximately 30% of all large filaments in these cycles disintegrated in the course of their transit across the solar disk. "Major' flares occurred with above average frequency on the l
It was shown by Zheleznyakov and Zlotnik (1980a, b) that in complex configurations of solar magnetic fields (in hot loops above the active centres, in neutral current sheets in the preflare phase, in hot X-ray kernels in the initial flare phase) a system of cyclotron lines in the spectrum of microwa
Investigations on the numerical calculation of the force-free magnetic field for solar active regions and its application, carried out by the author and his collaborators in recent years, is summarized. In this paper, some existing numerical calculations of constant a force-free fields for active re
