Abstract

Some interpretations of solar S burst spectra are presented. It is shown that the spectra provide evidence for small (∼ 500 km) radio sources in the corona which radiate at the fundamental plasma frequency. The possibility of S burst fringes corresponding to coronal MHD waves of wavelength λ ∼- 103 km is discussed.
