| Abstract: | The distribution of temperature and of emission measure in X-ray active regions relative to the coronal magnetic fields has been investigated. The position of maximum temperature and the position of maximum emission measure were found to lie along the magnetic neutral line, with the maximum temperature tending to lie above the position of an abrupt change in direction of the neutral line. Several simple structural models of these regions are compared to the emission measure. The total magnetic energy and the total emission measure appear to be related by a power law in the regions studied by us. |
