Notes. Comparison of the physical properties between the hot and superhot thermal components, given in the left and right columns, respectively. The temperature T and emission measure EM are the results of the spectral fitting shown in the top plots of Fig. 4. The distance of the centroid to the solar limb, R_c − R_limb, and the volume V are determined using the reconstructed images from spectral component imaging. The density ρ and the thermal energy E_th are determined using Eqs. (12) and (11). The time range considered here is the same as for Fig. 4, 22:14:20−22:14:50 UTC (Earth time).
