Interpretation of X-ray spectra from solar flares
Abstract
A technique developed for analysing the SMM X-ray spectra has been adapted to the interpretation of high resolution cooled germanium flare spectra. It is shown that these can be fitted equally well by simple all thermal or non-thermal distributions, and that the data set is insufficient to determine the non-thermal nature of the flare.
