Scientific paper

Concurrent observations of solar flares in broadband soft X-rays by two dissimilar detectors, one at Mars and one at Earth, enabled a study of the thermal development of disk flares and a study of the gross features of height, thermal stratification, and, in certain cases, the velocity of expanding flare loops. No normal, impulsive-type flares were observed above 50,000 km, but long-duration flares were sometimes observed at greater than 150,000 kn. These observations also revelaed an unexpected property of many small-to-moderate flares: cooler plasma is positioned above hotter plasmas throughout the life of the flare.
