Abstract

Using a simplified form of the bremsstrahlung cross-section, we obtain an analytic expression for the intensity of electron-beam-produced hard X-ray emission with depth in solar flares. The results show that ‘footpoint’ emission is more likely than previously thought, and we discuss these results in the light of recent observations.
