        *Corona
                ~Temperature around 10 million K
                ~Chromosphere is about 4500-6000K
        *Properties of Corona
                ~Origin of High Temperature
                ~Diffuse region
                ~Stores energy?
        *Solar Flares
                ~Abrupt release of energy
                *LDE
                *Impulsive flares
        *Properties of Solar Flares
                ~Zeeman effect - X-rays and EUV
                ~Energy source
        *Magnetic Fields, CME's, Magnetic Flux
        *Magnetic Reconnection theory
                ~evidence of reconnection
                ~ionized particles and magnetic field
                ~length scale as very small is most probable
                ~properties and characteristics
                    -cause: magnetic field lines stretched above a magnetic flux tube that becomes disturbed.   The disturbance causes a CME, which rises over the field lines and causes the field  lines to rise upward.
                    -magnetic field lines grow until they break and reconnect and then proceed to collapse down to a "rest" position. This happens with many field lines in the same flare so they collapse down on one another and as a result cause different temperatures to be present within the flare.
        *Structure of Flares
                ~Cusp-shaped loop
                ~ribbon-like stucture at base
                ~CSHKP model
        *What was looked at in flares for this project
                ~Center column of flare through what would be close to the reconnection point.  Only the part below this point can be seen well in the flares.
                ~Studied the temperature in this region in hope to see evidence of different temperature layers and effects of increase or decrease in a certain area over time in temperature.
