Using an improved isodensitometric technique it has been possible to study in great detail the photometric structure and the evolution of eight flares. A comparison has been made between the evolutive curves and the ones obtained from measurements of solar X-rays and radio fluxes at λλ 3·2 and 21 cm.

A reduction of the flare areas (and of the emitted energies) before the flash phase and a continuous pulsation of the flare have been observed. Further it seems that the flares associated with radio bursts or X-ray events are those which show regions of a sufficiently high intensity, the emitting areas not being a very important parameter.

The correlation in time between the various examined aspects of the AR seems to indicate that the sequence for the beginning of the different phenomena is, in general: optical flare, X-ray events, radio events.
