Scientific paper

Results from a high-resolution multi-layer-coated X-ray imaging telescope, part of the Normal Incidence X-ray Telescope sounding rocket payload are presented. Images of the peak of a two-ribbon flare showed detailed structure within each ribbon, as well as the expected bright arches of emission connecting the ribbons. The number of X-ray bright points is small, consistent with predictions based on the previous solar cycle. Topology of the magnetic structure is complex and highly tangled, implying that the magnetic complexity of the photosphere is paralleled in the corona.
