The polarization and angular distribution of solar hard X radiation above 10 keV was calculated under the assumption that the X rays originate as bremsstrahlung from energetic electrons moving in a preferred direction. The source electrons are supposed to have a power-law spectrum. These conditions are to be expected in the impulsive phase of an X-ray burst. The spiral orbits of the electrons around the magnetic field lines are taken into account.
