Abstract
With the use of X-ray heliographs carried by the satellites ‘Cosmos-166’ and ‘Cosmos-230’ the height of an X-ray flare was found to be about 20–25 000 km. The regions of the X-ray flares possess a filamentary structure which, during the development of the flares, shows spatial changings with speeds up to 107 cm/sec.
