AbstractX-ray spectrometer RESIK has observed spectra in the four wavelength bands from 3.3Å to 6.1Å. This spectral range contains many emission lines of H- and He-like ions for Si, S, Ar and K. These lines are formed in plasma of coronal temperatures (T>3MK). Analysis of their intensities allows studying differential emission measure distributions (DEM) in temperature range roughly between 3MK and 30MK. The aim of present study was to check whether any relationship exists between the character of DEM distribution, the event phase and the X-ray flare class. To do this we have calculated and analyzed the DEM distributions for a set of flares belonging to different GOES classes from the range B5.6–X1. The DEM distributions have been calculated using “Withbroe–Sylwester” multiplicative, maximum likelihood iterative algorithm. As the input data we have used absolute fluxes observed by RESIK in several spectral bands (lines+continuum). Respective emission functions have been calculated using the CHIANTI v. 5.2 atomic data package.
