Abstract

Observations of high-speed coronal clouds (OSO-7), flare ejecta (Skylab) and high-energy jets (HRTS) are compared. It is possible that the same physical mechanism — an expanding loop — which is responsible for the high speed jets (400 km sec−1, 2.5 x 1026 ergs) can also account for the high-speed coronal clouds (1300 km sec−1, 4 x 1030 ergs), which were correlated with a flare-connected spray. Field strength of 15 gauss and 2500 gauss are required for the jets and the sprays, respectively.
