It is well established that there is a connection between hard X-ray and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) flare emission. In the thick target model, hard X-ray emission is produced by a beam of nonthermal electrons, which deposit their energy in the chromosphere as a result of Coulomb collisions with the denser plasma. At EUV wavelengths we observe the response of the chromosphere and corona to this deposition of energy. Using X-ray observations from the Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) and EUV observations from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) and the Extreme Ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE) instruments onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) we investigate the spectral, spatial and temporal correlations between these emission mechanisms. With these new observations from SDO we can achieve this with unprecedented spectral coverage and cadence.
