Solar energetic electrons are observed to escape from the Sun into interplanetary space. However, the release machanism(s) and the involved magnetic field geometry are not well understood. In particular, it is not well understood why some solar events release energetic electrons into interplanetary and others are not. Here, radio emissions (type III bursts) and insitu observations of escaping electron beams (impulsive electron events) are compared with X-ray signatures produced by electrons moving towards the Sun. The Nancay Radio Heliograph and the WAVES experiment on WIND provide the radio observations, WIND/3DP the insitu 1-300~keV electron observations. The X-ray observations are taken by the recently launched High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (HESSI). First results of this study are presented.
