Abstract: | The problem of production of flare hard X-rays by bremsstrahlung from hot thermal escaping electrons (Skrynnikov and Somov, 1982) in a chromospheric plasma is studied.The Landau kinetic equation is solved near the thermal source of energized electrons in a homogeneous magnetic tube to compute the anisotropic inhomogeneous distribution of the thermal escaping electrons.The intensity and polarization of hard X-rays is also computed and a comparison of theoretical results with observational data is made.On leave from: Istituto di Astronomia, Largo E, Fermi 5, I-50125 Firenze, Italy. |
