Abstract
We have found possible radio signatures of a coronal disconnection eve nt observed by the Solar Maximum Mission Coronagraph/Polarimeter. The radio emission seems to be produced by charged particles accelerated d uring the same reconnection process which is responsible for the disco nnection event. We discuss the implications of the radio emission char acteristics to the reconnection process.
