The soft x-ray (2–54 Å) pictures obtained by the S-054 experiment aboard SKYLAB provide an excellent opportunity to study the association of x-ray loop structures with radio bursts. We report here on the properties of meter-decameter wavelength radio bursts which appear to be associated with two different types of loop structures:

  1. a) Relatively short lived small scale loops, which are observed to link magnetic fields of opposite polarity, called x-ray bright points (XBPs); and

  2. b) Longer lived loop systems which appear to connect opposite magnetic polarities of an active region and active region complexes as well.
