Scientific paper

Hard X-ray and radio observations can be used to identify source of electron acceleration within the flare-CME system. Observations at meter wavelengths using the Nancay Radioheliograph are ideal for locating sources of synchrotron and plasma emission. Bastian et al. (2001) and Maia et al. (2007) imaged synchrotron emission present in the expanding loops of two independent CME's. It is unclear how these electrons were accelerated. Previous suggestions include acceleration at the reconnection site/current sheet between the flare and CME or in the foreshock generated as the ejected material propagates outward. We present observations of an event which occurred on the 14th of August which is a new candidate for studying these events.
