The > 40-keV solar-flare electrons observed by the IMP III and Mariner IV satellites are shown to be closely correlated with solar radio and X-ray burst emission. In particular, intense type III radio bursts are observed to accompany solar electron-event flares. The energies of the electrons, the total number of electrons, and the size of the electron source at the sun can be inferred from radio observations. The characteristics of the electrons observed in interplanetary space are consistent with these radio observations. Therefore these electrons are identified as the exciting agents of the type III emission. It has been noted that the radio and X-ray bursts are part of the flash phase of flares. The observations indicate that a striking feature of the flash phase is the production of electrons of 10–100 keV energies.

Purpose: The overview of the scientifi c papers devoted to the study of the solar decameter radio emission with the world’s largest UTR-2 radio telescope (Ukraine) published for the last 50 years. Design/methodology/approach: The study and analysis of the scientifi c papers on both sporadic and quiet (thermal) radiation of the Sun recorded with the UTR-2 radio telescope at the decameter wavelength range. Findings: The most signifi cant observational and theoretical results of the solar radio emission studies obtained at the Institute of Radio Astronomy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine for the last 50 years are given. Conclusions: For the fi rst time, at frequencies below 30 MHz, the Type II bursts, Type IV bursts, S-bursts, drift pairs and spikes have been recorded. The dependences of these bursts parameters on frequency within the frequency band of 9 to 30 MHz were obtained. The models of their generation and propagation were suggested. Moreover, for the fi rst time the fi ne time-frequency structures of the Type III bursts, Type II bursts, Type IV bursts, U- and J-bursts, S-bursts, and drift pairs have been observed due to the high sensitivity and high time-frequency resolutions of the UTR-2 radio telescope. The super-fi ne structure of Type II bursts with a “herringbone” structure was identifi ed, which has never been observed before. New types of bursts were discovered: “caterpillar” bursts, “dog-leg” bursts, Type III bursts with decay, Type III bursts with changing drift rate sign, Type III-like bursts, Jb- and Ub-bursts, etc. An interpretation of the unusually high drift rates and drift rates with alternating signs of the Type III-like bursts was suggested. Based on the dependence of spike durations on frequency, the coronal plasma temperature profi le at the heliocentric heights of 1.5–3RS was determined. Usage of the heliographic and interferometric methods gave the possibility to start studies of the spatial characteristics – sizes and locations of the bursts emission sources. Thus, it was shown that at the decameter band, the Type III burst durations were defi ned by the emission source linear sizes, whereas the spike durations were governed by the collision times in the source plasma. It was experimentally proved that the effective brightness temperatures of the sources of solar sporadic radio emission at the decameter band may reach values of 1014–1015 K. In addition, it was found that the radii of the quiet Sun at frequencies 20 and 25 MHz are close to the distances from the Sun at which the local plasma frequency is equal to the corresponding observed frequency of radio emission in the Baumbach–Allen model.

On 1975 August 22 an outburst above the west limb of the Sun was observed with the Culgoora radioheliograph at 43, 80 and 160 MHz. The first stages of the event included intense type III/V bursts followed by a type II burst with multiple, fundamental and harmonic bands and herringbone structure. While the type II burst was still in progress a moving type IV burst appeared. It was eventually observed out to a distance of more than 3 R⊙. This was the first moving type IV burst observed with the two-dimensional radioheliograph operating at three frequencies; as such it provides valuable constraints on models of moving type IV sources.

Abstract We have analysed 58 high-energy proton events and 36 temporally related near-relativistic electron events from the years 1997 – 2015 for which the velocity dispersion analysis of the first-arriving particles gave the apparent path lengths between 1 and 3 AU. We investigated the dependence of the characteristics of the proton events on the associations of type II, III, and IV radio bursts. We also examined the properties of the soft X-ray flares and coronal mass ejections associated with these events. All proton events were associated with decametric type III radio bursts, while type IV emission was observed only in the meter wavelengths in some of the events (32/58). Almost all proton events (56/58) were associated with radio type II bursts: 11 with metric (m) type II only, 11 with decametric–hectometric (DH) only, and 34 with type II radio bursts at both wavelength ranges. By examining several characteristics of the proton events, we discovered that the proton events can be divided into two categories. The characteristics of events belonging to the same category were similar, while they significantly differed between events in different categories. The distinctive factors between the categories were the wavelength range of the associated type II radio emission and the temporal relation of the proton release with respect to the type II onset. In Category 1 are the events which were associated with only metric type II emission or both m and DH type II and the release time of protons was before the DH type II onset (18/56 events). Category 2 consists of the events which were associated with only DH type II emission or both m and DH type II and the protons were released at or after the DH type II onset (31/56 events). For seven of the 56 events we were not able to determine a definite category due to timing uncertainties. The events in Category 1 had significantly higher intensity rise rates, shorter rise times, lower release heights, and harder energy spectra than Category 2 events. Category 1 events also originated from magnetically well-connected regions and had only small time differences between the proton release times and the type III onsets. The soft X-ray flares for these events had significantly shorter rise times and durations than for Category 2 events. We found 36 electron events temporally related to the proton events, which fulfilled the same path length criterion as the proton events. We compared the release times of protons and electrons at the Sun, and discovered that in 19 of the 36 events protons were released almost simultaneously (within ${\pm}\,7$ ± 7 minutes) with the electrons, in 16 events protons were released later than the electrons, and in one event electrons were released after the protons. The simultaneous proton and electron events and the delayed proton events did not unambiguously fall in the two categories of proton events, although most of the events in which the protons were released after the electrons belonged to Category 2. We conclude that acceleration of protons in Category 1 events occurred low in the corona, either by CME-driven shocks or below the CMEs in solar flares or in CME initiation related processes. It seems plausible that protons in Category 2 events were accelerated by CME-driven shocks high in the solar corona. Large delays of protons with respect to type III onsets in the events where protons were released after the electrons suggest late acceleration or release of protons close to the Sun, but the exact mechanism causing the delay remained unclear.

Although cosmic rays detected in interplanetary space have often been correlated with visible flares at the Sun, little is known about the transport of these particles through the corona. Lin demonstrated a good correlation between ≳20 keV electron events detected by spacecraft near the Earth and type III radio bursts at the Sun. In a detailed investigation of many of these electron events from one particular active region source, Lin proposed that the injection of electrons was characterized by a source region in the corona which extended over ~70° in longitude, such that in this region the electrons had direct access to an ‘open cone’ of propagation in interplanetary space. When the spacecraft was situated outside this open cone (by up to 15°), impulsive electron events were still recorded, but these were now modified by diffusion through the corona of the electrons from the 70° source region.
