Fast electron slowing-down and diffusion in a high temperature coronal X-ray source
Ross K. Galloway, Alexander L. MacKinnon, Eduard P. Kontar +1
Finite thermal velocity modifications to electron slowing-down rates may be important for the deduction of solar flare total electron energy. Here we treat both slowing-down and ve…

Solar Flares as Cascades of Reconnecting Magnetic Loops
D. Hughes, M. Paczuski, R. O. Dendy +2
A model for the solar coronal magnetic field is proposed where multiple directed loops evolve in space and time. Loops injected at small scales are anchored by footpoints of opposi…
