Non-thermal energy release in the post-impulsive phase of the May 9, 2021 event by M. Zhang et al.

The study by M. Zhang et al. investigates the non-thermal energy release during the post-impulsive phase of the solar flare event that occurred on May 9, 2021. This phase is characterized by the acceleration of charged particles, particularly non-thermal electrons, which are detected through hard X-ray and radio emissions.

Understanding the dynamics of non-thermal energy release in solar flares is crucial for advancing knowledge in solar physics and could have implications for predicting solar activity that affects space weather and satellite operations.
