Complex H(sub alpha) Loop Activity in a Long Duration FlareA long duration Bare was observed in the active region NOAA 6555 on March 23, 1991 at a location of low magnetic shear. This flare displayed complex H(sub alpha) loop activity during the decay phase. Initially, there were a few long loops orientated at an angle of about 45 degree with the east-west axis followed by the appearance of east-west axis. This configuration was aligned shorter loops. By using different magnetic field models, we have extrapolated the photospheric magnetogram.9 to the chromospheric heights. The magnetic field lines computed by using the potential field model correspond to most of the observed H. loops. In this paper, we report the analysis of high resolution chromospheric observations of the event and describe a possible scenario for the post-flare loop activity.
