  • 摘要:Context. Impulsive radio and hard X-ray emission from large solar flares are usually attributed to a hard distribution of high-energy electrons accelerated in the energy dissipation process of magnetic reconnection.Aims. We report the detection of impulsive radio and hard X-ray emissions produced by a population of energetic electrons with a very soft distribution in an M-class flare: SOL2015-08-27T05:45 .Methods. The absence of impulsive emission at 34 GHz and hard X-ray emission above 50 keV and the presence of distinct impulsive emission at 17 GHz and lower frequencies and in the 25–50 keV X-ray band imply a very soft distribution of energetic electrons producing the impulsive radio emission via the gyro-synchrotron process, and impulsive X-rays via bremsstrahlung.Results. The spectrum of the impulsive hard X-ray emission can be fitted equally well with a power-law model with an index of ∼6.5 or a super-hot thermal model with a temperature as high as 100 MK. Imaging observations in the extreme-UV and X-ray bands and extrapolation of the magnetic field structure using a nonlinear force-free model show that energetic electrons trapped in coronal loops are responsible for these impulsive emissions.Conclusions. Since the index of the power-law model is nearly constant during the impulsive phase, the power-law distribution or the super-hot component should be produced by a bulk energization process such as theFermiand betatron acceleration of collapsing magnetic loops.
