Abstract: We investigate the temperature structure of the post-flare loops from two small flares by utilizing a differential emission measure (DEM) method that takes advantage of the many X-ray filters available on the X-Ray Telescope (XRT) on Hinode. This method allows us to observe multi-thermal plasma along the line of sight. Using this method, we see clear evidence of multiple temperatures in the post-flare loops systems. We also find that intensity changes in the XRT images are due to cooling plasma in one of the flares, and decreasing emission measure in the other flare.
