A topological approach to understand a multiple-loop solar flare
We analyze the UV and X-ray data obtained by the SMM satellite for the flare starting at 02:36 UT on November 12, 1980 in AR 2779. From a detailed revision of the O v emission, we find that the observations are compatible with energy being released in a zone above the magnetic inversion line of the...
