Abstract

A modification of the presently existing intermediate drift burst model by Kuijpers (1975) and Bernold (1983) is suggested. It is shown that whistler solitons cannot be responsible for intermediate drift bursts. Here, they are interpreted as the radio signature of localized formstable whistler wave packets propagating along the magnetic field in a coronal loop. In the frame of this modified model, the magnetic field strengths derived from fiber burst data agree with previous estimates by Dulk and McLean (1978).
