Abstract

We report the observation and interpretation of a correlated type III burst emitted from distant sources on the Sun. The angular separation between the distant sources is as large as 26′ or ∼ 106 km. There was an active region ∼ 30° behind the limb, and it is believed that the type III burst emission originated from activity in this region. The implications of the locations of the correlated sources with regard to the geometry of the magnetic structures involved in the flare process are discussed.
