Scientific paper

Observations of impulsive and slow solar-flare components and of the polarization of flare X-rays are used to determine the thermal and nonthermal energy contributions as well as the characteristics of accelerated electron fluxes. The energy of an electron beam and of a high-temperature cloud produced during flares are estimated, and UV flares observed in the spectral region from 300 to 1800 A are analyzed. Heating of the lowest atmospheric layers by a heat flux and by accelerated particles is investigated, taking into account the resultant motions. The role of the magnetic field and possible modifications of flare theory necessitated by extra-atmospheric observations are briefly discussed.
