Abstract

We suggest magnetic morphologies for several flares using Hα filter-grams and a flare model of reconnection under an erupting magnetic flux rope (Hirayama, 1974). Here we select those flares which, at first sight, seem difficult to understand in terms of the model. Some restricting conditions on the Petschek type magnetic reconnection model are empirically derived.
