Abstract
Horizontal motion has been studied of the matter along the active region at different heights of the photosphere (115–580 km) in the initial phase of the two-ribbon solar flare on September 4, 1990, near the solar limb, accompanied by the ejection. Photospheric velocities varied in the range −3.5 ... 2.5 km/s. The direction of motion in the photosphere and the chromosphere was mainly toward the observer. Kinematic elements have been discovered in the structure of the horizontal velocity field. Their size reduced as they approached the maximum of the flare from 7–12 to 4–5 Mm, and the velocity amplitude decreased. Throughout the whole investigated active region, vortex motions were observed in the photosphere and chromosphere. Temporal changes in the horizontal velocity field in node areas and in their vicinity were oscillatory in nature and occurred almost simultaneously along the entire height of the photosphere.
