✦ Synopsis
Recently recognized solar millimetre-wave off-limb sources are interpreted as a special phenomenon of long-duration post-and inter-flare emission at coronal altitudes. We present, for the first time, information about the brightness and polarization spectrum in the centimetre range for one such event of September 22, 1980 by means of RATAN-600 observations. The brightness temperatures observed favour the interpretation of the bulk of the emission by thermal optically thin bremsstrahlung. The degree of polarization measured (p ~ 0.1-0.2 in the range 7.5-15 GHz) implies quite strong magnetic fields of about >300 + 100 G at a height z> 3 x 104km above the photosphere and indicates a possible contribution of gyromagnetic radiation and/or optically thick bremsstrahlung at longer wavelengths.

## Abstract Most reflectarrays use a half‐wavelength cell size. In this paper, we present a new reflector‐antenna configuration that provides beam scanning and gain improvements by reducing the size of the cells. Small reflectarrays with cell sizes λ/2 and λ/4, respectively, have been designed at 9
Parameters of moving sources on the sea surface are recovered by spectral analysis of the induced surface waves. The method can be an alternative to the standard way of seeing the ship directly, in particular, when the direct observation is impossible.
