Scientific paper

Impact linear polarization of the Hα chromospheric line has been observed in some flares and reported (Hénoux et al., 1990). A new observation made on July 17th 1982 is presented. The characteristics of the 10 minutes time integrated polarization are similar to the characteristics of the polarization observed in other flares, i.e. the main direction of the polarization is close to the radial direction and the polarization degree reaches 5%. However, in a few locations, an higher polarization fraction as high as 15% is observed in the one minute time integrated data. The observational method is described and the origin of the observed polarization is discussed.
