Scientific paper

Millisecond spikes of solar radio emission have been known for more than two decades. There has recently been a surge in interest on the part of theoreticians who are fascinated by their high brightness temperature of up to 10 to the 15th K, their association with hard X-ray bursts, and a possibly very intimate relation to electron acceleration. This review is intended to bridge the gap that presently seems to separate theory and observations. The wide range of spike observations is summarized and brought into the perspective of recent models. It is concluded that spikes yield a considerable potential for the diagnostics of energetic particles, their origin, and history in astrophysical plasmas.
