Abstract
Abstract We have developed a multi-thermal model for the cooling of post-flare loops. Our model consists of many nested loops that form and cool at offset times to simulate a rising reconnection site. Cooling due to both conductive and radiative processes is taken into account. The free parameters in the model include the initial temperature and density in the loops. The loop width and the initial loop length are constrained by the data. The results from the model are compared to observations from the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer and the Soft X-ray Telescope on Yohkoh . The many-loop model predicts the observed light curves more accurately than a similar model with a single loop.
