Scientific paper

Examples of highly excited space plasmas are reviewed, and the morphology and origin of such plasmas are examined. The examples include mechanical energy fluxes in supergiant stars, stellar coronae observed from satellites at X-ray and UV wavelengths, mechanical energy fluxes generated by convective motions in cool stars, stellar chromospheres observed from satellites in the UV, X-ray and optical flares observed on YZ CMi and UV Cet, X-ray bursts from globular clusters, and solar flares. The relation between solar hard X-ray bursts and type III radio bursts is discussed together with previous studies of solar-flare morphology, and models for electron acceleration in hard X-ray flares are considered. Relations are outlined among magnetic, rotational, and nuclear energy sources in the sun and the solar radiation flux, convection, mechanical energy flux, differential rotation, active regions, supergranulation, flares, the corona, X-ray flux, and the solar wind.
