Abstract
Large scale and high density plasma cloud motions were detected in the rise phase of flares by the Nobeyama Radioheliograph. The Nobeyama Radio- heliograph is a radio interferometer dedicated to solar observations. It has a capability to synthesize one full disk solar image every second at 17 GHz and to observe continuously during 8 hours every day. The spatial resolution is about 10 arc seconds. Fast motions and changes of radio brightness caused by activity anywhere on or near the solar disk can be detected with high probability due to its wide field of view and its continuous observation with high cadence.
