The solar flare is discussed in terms of its three phases: energy storage, energy release, and dissipation. Some of the problems associated with theoretical modelling are considered, together with the limitations imposed by current observations. New measurements to be made by the N.A.S.A. Solar Maximum Mission satellite are expected to advance significantly our understanding of the flare mechanism.

The X-Ray Polychromator (XRP) resumed operations on 24 April 1984 following the successful in-orbit repair of the Solar Maximum Mission Satellite. Since that time the two instruments that comprise the XRP, the Flat Crystal Spectrometer (FCS) and the Bent Crystal Spectrometer (BCS), have been used to obtain new spectroscopic data from active regions and flares. The FCS, in particular, has accumulated far more observations of soft X-ray line profiles than were obtained during SMM-I in 1980. For this short presentation, we have chosen two topics to illustrate the type of data that we have obtained since the repair.
