Abstract
The Neupert effect is commonly interpreted as evidence that the energetic electrons causing the hard X-ray flare emission are the main source of heating and mass supply of the soft X-ray emitting hot coronal loop plasma. RHESSI and GOES data are used to test the Neupert effect by comparing the beam power supply inferred from hard X-ray spectra and the actual power required to explain the observed soft X-ray emission.
