Adiabatic and Non-Adiabatic Processes in Thermal Models of Solar Hard X-Ray Bursts.

Abstract

The processes by which the observed characteristics of the hard X-ray bremsstrahlung, emitted from a solar flare loop, are modulated, are investigated. This leads us to a set of inversion formulae, giving the behavior of physical variables in terms of observable quantities. The method is applied to recent observational data. (Author)
