OBSERVATION OF A SOLAR BREMSSTRAHLUNG BURST OF 1926 UT, AUGUST 11, 1960

Journal Article · · J. Geophys. Research
Balloon detector data are given for a radiation increase at 1926 UT, August 11, 196O, which is identified as a bremsstrahlung burst on the sun during a class 2+ flare. The data, collected above Minneapolls, Minn., and Fort Churchill, Manitoba, Canada, indicate low-enengy x rays with a mean energy of approximately 3O kev. The correlations between this burst with radiofrequency and optical obserwations are given. It is concluded that the burst is correlated with Type III radio emission, which confirms De Jager's prediction of an association between flare x rays and Type III bursts. (D.L.C.)
