Abstract

The small-scale structure of the thermal X-ray background of the solar corona and microflares in the photon energy range from 3 to 16 keV according to the RHESSI data obtained on March–April 2003 is analyzed. The study of the reduction in the X-ray intensity in this spectral range is continued. A reduction and, in some cases, an increase in the X-ray intensity of the thermal background of the solar corona and microflares in narrow subranges of the X-ray spectrum of the quiet Sun are revealed in the photon energy range of 3–11 keV.
