The X-ray spectrometer IRIS was designed to register the fluxes of quanta with energies ranging from 2 to 250 keV in various time-resolution modes: 0.01, 1.0, and 2.5 s in 4, 64, and 12 channels, respectively. Owing to the high instrument sensitivity, individual spikes of tens of milliseconds can be distinguished in the time structure of the X-ray flare emission. The time spectral analysis carried out for the X-ray emission of a number of registered flares points to the presence of a quasiperiodic structure with characteristic times of the same order. For the flares of December 19, 2001, and August 10, 2002, the process of energy release has been considered with a 1-s time resolution, and its periodic character has been revealed. For the flare of December 19, 2001, the energy spectra of the hard X-ray emission have been simulated by thermal and nonthermal models. It has been shown that the both models can describe this emission.
