Time variation of the spectrum of Gyro-synchrotron emission from the Sun

The emission spectra and their time variations of gyro-synchrotron emission from an ensemble of energetic electrons are computed for some initial power-law distributions of the electron energies N()d=^– with =2 or 4. The spectra and decay curves of the emission are compared with solar microwave bursts in order to separately estimate the magnetic field H and . From a limited number of observations, we have 3 and H 10³ gauss for the microwave impulsive bursts, and 2 and H (500–1000) gauss for the microwave type-IV bursts.
