Scientific paper

We present high resolution radio and X-ray images of emission from nonthermal electrons trapped in a flaring coronal loop and measure various physical properties of the loop, including the loop thickness as a function of position along the loop and intensity profiles along the loop. Gyrosynchrotron modelling provides a complementary method for inferring parameters such as the magnetic field variation along the loop, and we compare the results of the two approaches. Both agree that there is little variation in magnetic field strength along the loop; this purely radio measurement thus supports the same inference derived from measurements of EUV and X-ray loop thicknesses.
