Use of RHESSI observations to determine the origin and fate of non-thermal flare electrons

Most analyses of the characteristics of hard X-ray emission from solar flares have relied on observations of the spectral, temporal and spatial intensity distribution obtained by different instruments and, in the majority of cases, different events. The Reuven Ramaty High Energy Spectroscopic Imager...
