| Abstract | We present an analysis of the time profiles detected during a solar impulsive flare, observed at one-millimeter radio frequency (48 GHz) and in three hard X-ray energy bands (25– 62, 62–111, and 111–325 keV) with high sensitivity and time resolution. The time profiles of all emissions exhibit fast time structures of 200–300 ms half power duration which appear in excess of a slower component varying on a typical time scale of 10 s. The amplitudes of both the slow and fast variations observed at 48 GHz are not proportional to those measured in the three hard X-ray energy bands. However, the fast time structures detected in both domains are well correlated and occur simultaneously within 64 ms, the time resolution of the hard X-ray data. In the context of a time-of-flight flare model, our results put strong constraints on the acceleration time scales of electrons to MeV energies. |
