We report striking Doppler velocity gradients observed during the well-observed 2017 September 10 solar flare, and argue that they are consistent with the presence of an above-the-looptop termination shock beneath the flare current sheet. …
Magnetic reconnection is the key mechanism for energy release in solar eruptions, where the high-temperature emission is the primary diagnostic for investigating the plasma properties during the reconnection process. Non-thermal broadening of …
A number of double coronal X-ray sources have been observed during solar flares by RHESSI, where the two sources reside at different sides of the inferred reconnection site. However, where and how these X-ray-emitting electrons are accelerated …
The X8.2-class limb flare on 2017 September 10 is among the best studied solar flare events owing to its great similarity to the standard flare model and the broad coverage by multiple spacecraft and ground-based observations. These multiwavelength …
The first self-consistent simulations of electron acceleration during magnetic reconnection in a macroscale system are presented. Consistent with solar flare observations, the spectra of energetic electrons take the form of power laws that extend …

As one of the most spectacular energy release events in the solar system, solar flares are generally powered by magnetic reconnection in the solar corona. As a result of the re- arrangement of magnetic field topology after the reconnection process, a …

We report observations of type III radio bursts at decimeter wavelengths (type IIIdm bursts)—signatures of suprathermal electron beams propagating in the low corona—using the new technique of radio dynamic imaging spectroscopy provided by the …
