Abstract: We propose to study the atmospheric response to non-thermal
electron accelerated during solar flares using RHESSI and SOHO/CDS. By
analyzing the hard x-ray spectra of loop footpoints with RHESSI, we can
obtain information about the energy being deposited in the chromosphere
and transition region. Using the diagnostic capabilities of CDS, the
response velocities of the plasma can be obtained over a wide range of
temperatures.
