Reconnection events on the Sun cause explosive flares. These events are monitored by a host of satellite instruments, one of the newest being the XRT on Hinode. With a high cadence and 1 arcsecond resolution, the XRT can be used to help shed light on unresolved magnetic reconnection topics such as particle acceleration associated with reconnection and the subsequent outflows. We examine the flares seen thus far with XRT and study the associated temporal and size scale as well as the magnetic flux density to compare with previous work done with Yohkoh SRT/HRT. In addition, complimentary data from TRACE, RHESSI and other solar satellites are used to better parameterize the reconnection sites and the associated particle acceleration. The US XRT team is supported by a contract from NASA to SAO. Hinode is an international project supported by JAXA, NASA, PPARC and ESA. We are grateful to the Hinode team for all their efforts in the design, development and operation of the mission.
