The authors present Hα, 10.6 GHz microwave, and greater than 100 keV X-ray observations of a single impulsive spike flare that occurred on 1980 May 28, 1947 UT. The isolated high flux spike provides an excellent opportunity to infer the time behavior of the electron acceleration that is assumed to yield the microwave and hard X-ray flux profiles. It is found that, although the time profile consists of a simple, single peak, the spike is actually due to two acceleration episodes in separate sources. The authors adopt a source model for microwave and hard X-ray sources, in which the microwave source is due to electrons trapped at the top of a magnetic loop, and the hard X-ray source is due to thick-target emission at the footpoints.
