Dynamics and evolution of the post-flare loops of June 1992

Observations in X-rays (Yohkoh/SXT) and in H of a system of post-flare loops which developed after a flare on 25 June 1992 provide a unique set of data for a study of the relationship between the hot and cool post-flare loops as they evolve. Through a study of the magnetic configuration in which the flare occurred, we are able to reconstruct the true, 3D geometry of the loops. We derive the bulk-flow velocities along the loop as a function of height using Doppler velocities and the results from the loop reconstruction. We also provide a set of relative altitude data. These results are used to check the validity of the reconnection model in the frame of the cooling time needed to cool X-ray loops to H temperature.
