The subsecond pulses during the August 10, 2011 flare by observations of RATAN-600 and the 4–8 GHz Siberian solar spectropolarimeter

2013 
We present the results of a study of the subsecond pulses (SSPs) registered in the microwaves during the C2.4 solar flare. The event occurred on August 10, 2011, in the 11236 active region near the western limb and reached a maximum at 0935 UT. Subsecond pulses were registered by RATAN-600 for the first time when this flare reached its maximum. The fact of detection of SSPs was confirmed by simultaneous observations carried out with a spectropolarimeter at the Radio Astrophysical Observatory, Institute of Solar-Terrestrial Physics. A former analysis of the emission nature of the main flare source revealed the presence of a high-temperature (T > 30 MK) source that determined both the microwave and X-ray emission parameters of this event. We have compared the temporal variations of the SSPs microwave emission with the variations of the plasma parameters (temperature and emission measure) taken from observations with the FERMI space telescope with a subsecond time resolution. The obtained results suggest that the nature of SSP generation, as well as of the flare itself, was determined by the high-temperature source.
