Observational results are presented for five gradual and four impulsive type events from the hard X-ray imaging and spectrometer instruments on the Hinotori satellite. Four sets of differences are clearly observed between the gradual and impulsive type bursts. Hard X-ray images are found to show the existence of a large coronal source for each gradual burst and a wide variety of source structures for impulsive bursts. The source heights of the impulsive bursts are found to be low. All gradual bursts are found to exhibit power-law spectra, whereas impulsive bursts exhibit exponential thermal spectra at least before the maximum phase. Energy-dependent peak delays are found only in gradual bursts. It is concluded that two different acceleration and emission mechanisms are involved with these two kinds of hard X-ray bursts.
