Scientific paper

The properties of coronal loops are measured and used to test the predictions of coronal heating models. The coronal loop temperature, emission measure, geometry, and magnetic field strength are measured from broadband soft x-ray images obtained by the High Resolution Soft X-ray Imaging Sounding Rocket payload and from coordinated ground based observations. The radiative energy loss rates for these loops, calculated from the observed plasma properties, are compared to the scalings with loop length or magnetic field strength predicted by various models of coronal heating. The loop scaling laws of Rosner, Tucker, and Vaiana, and of Golub et al are also tested with these observations.
