Scientific paper

The satellite Hinotori was launched in 1981 by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science of Japan. Two major experiments on board the Hinotori satellite were a hard X-ray imaging telescope with modulation collimators, and a high dispersion soft X-ray crystal spectrometer utilizing the Bragg diffraction of X-rays on quartz crystals. These two instruments have revealed for the first time that solar flares show varying characteristics depending on the environment of flaring regions, and that flares produce plasmas as hot as 3-4 × 107 K.
