Abstract
AbstractObservations of the vector magnetic field imply that there is a net current flowing through the corona, and there is also evidence that this current is directly related to flares. It is argued that if the currents are unneutralised, then this requires a radical rethinking of several widely accepted ideas on solar magnetic fields and their role in solar flares.
