Abstract

We have developed a new method for synthesizing hard X-ray maps from the raw data of the Solar X-ray Telescope (SXT) aboard Hinotori. Using this method we analyzed five typical SXT events and summarized their images in a movie with a time resolution of about 8 s (half spin period of the satellite). The movie clearly shows that (1) three different classes of bursts, i.e., the gradual thermal burst, the multiple impulsive burst, and the extended outburst, have different structures and show quite different variations from each other, and that (2) the source of the extended outburst is located in the corona above 104 km and its shape appears to be a large loop.
