Scientific paper

The Yohkoh observatory carries two instruments whose main emphasis is the observation of soft X-radiation, principally emitted by thermal radiation processes. The other two Yohkoh instruments also observe some of these thermal sources. The combination of instruments makes Yohkoh unprecedented in its ability to observe the remarkable array of hot plasmas in the solar corona, and this has resulted in many new discoveries as well as in the sharpening of our knowledge of known (but often unexplained) phenomena. The scope of this review consists of the Yohkoh observations of thermal plasmas, and it emphasizes the new discoveries. The SXT data show many phenomena whose geometry and dynamics strongly suggest magnetic reconnection.
