X-Ray/Radio Quasiperiodic Pulsations Associated with Plasmoids in Solar Flare Current Sheets by Pankaj Kumar, Judith T. Karpen, Joel T. Dahlin

“…Here, we present direct imaging of the formation and ejection of multiple plasmoids in flare plasma/current sheets and the associated quasiperiodic pulsations (QPPs) observed at X-ray and radio wavelengths, using observations from the Solar Dynamics Observatory/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly, RHESSI, and the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor. These plasmoids propagate bidirectionally upward and downward along the flare current sheet beneath the erupting flux rope during two successive flares associated with confined/failed eruptions. …”
