Scientific paper

The data used in the investigation were obtained by the American Science and Engineering S-054 experiment on board Skylab. The instrument employed was a grazing incidence X-ray telescope which records images of the sun on film. The morphology of limb flares is investigated and the observed spatial structure is related with the other physical parameters of the region (temperature, density, characteristic times, and energy density). It is concluded that two physically distinct classes of flares exist that differ both in their morphology and in the physical properties which characterize the emitting regions.
