In this paper, the energy budgets of two single-loop like flares observed in X- ray are analysed under the assumption that non-thermal electrons (NTEs) are the only source of plasma heating during all phases of both events. The flares were…
Investigate particle acceleration and heating in a solar microflare. In a microflare with non-thermal emission to remarkably high energies ($>50$ keV), we investigate the hard X-rays with RHESSI imaging and spectroscopy and the resulting…
In this paper we analyze soft and hard X-ray emission of the 2002 September 20 M1.8 GOES class solar flare observed by RHESSI and GOES satellites. In this flare event, soft X-ray emission precedes the onset of the main bulk hard X-ray…
The unusually narrow X-ray source imaged with RHESSI during an impulsive spike lasting for $\sim$10~s during the GOES C7.9 flare on 25 September 2011 (SOL2011-09-25T03:32) was only $\sim$2~ arcsec wide and $\sim$10~arcsec long. Comparison…
The GOES X1.5 class flare that occurred on August 30,2002 at 1327:30 UT is one of the few events detected so far at submillimeter wavelengths. We present a detailed analysis of this flare combining radio observations from 1.5 to 212 GHz (an…
This paper presents measurements of the energy radiated by the lower solar atmosphere, at optical, UV, and EUV wavelengths, during an X-class solar flare (SOL2011-02-15T01:56) in response to an injection of energy assumed to be in the form…
We report the detection of emission from a non-thermal electron distribution in a small solar microflare (GOES class A5.7) observed by the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR), with supporting observation by the Reuven Ramaty High…
In this work we study the correlation between the soft (1.6--12.4 keV, mostly thermal) and the hard (20--40 and 60--80 keV, mostly non-thermal) X-ray emission in solar flares up to the most energetic events, spanning about 4 orders of…
A new estimation of the total number and energy of the non-thermal electrons produced in the giant ($>\text{X}17$) solar flare on 2003 October 28 is presented based on the analysis of the observations of the hard X-ray (HXR) emission by the…
We study the electron energy spectra of two powerful solar flares SOL2003-10-28T 11:06:16 (GOES class X17.2) and SOL2002-07-23T00:18:16 (X4.8) on the basis of HXR and gamma-ray spectra obtained from RHESSI data. Electron-electron (e-e)…
We report on an X-ray flare detected on the active binary system II~Pegasi with the Swift telescope. The trigger had a 10-200 keV luminosity of 2.2$\times10^{32}$ erg s$^{-1}$-- a superflare, by comparison with energies of typical stellar…

A M-class behind-the-limb solar flare on 1 May 2013 (SOL2013-05-01T02:32), accompanied by a ($\sim$ 400 km/s) CME was observed by several space-based observatories with different viewing angles. We investigated the RHESSI-observed occulted…
Soft X-ray spectra 3.33 A - 6.15 A from the RESIK instrument on CORONAS-F constitute a unique database for the study of the physical conditions of solar flare plasmas, enabling the calculation of differential emission measures. The two…

We present data analysis and interpretation of an M1.4-class flare observed with the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) on April 30, 2002. This event, with its footpoints occulted by the solar limb, exhibits a…
A popular scenario for electron acceleration in solar flares is transit-time damping of low-frequency MHD waves excited by reconnection and its outflows. The scenario requires several processes in sequence to yield energetic electrons of…
Flares close to the solar limb, where the footpoints are occulted, can reveal the spectrum and structure of the coronal loop-top source in X-rays. We aim at studying the properties of the corresponding energetic electrons near their…
