An X-ray jet is a phenomena discovered by SXT/Yohkoh and the observed properties of the X-ray jets are well
explained by the X-ray jet model based on magnetic reconnection (Shibata et al. 1992). The model proposed that
the X-ray jet is produced by the magnetic reconnection between pre-exist coronal magnetic field (a part of open
field or large loops) and the emerging flux. The configuration is very simple and we can easily predict the position
of the reconnection site. Hence, we think that an X-ray jet is a useful phenomenon for investigating the detail
properties of reconnection process in the corona. In the study, we study the dynamics of fine structures and
temperature structures of X-ray jets using X-ray images observed with the XRT/Hinode and investigate the detail
properties of magnetic reconnection in corona. We also use the data of magnetic distribution taken by the
SOT/Hinode and study the relationship of magnetic connectivity and reconnection process. At first, we found that
two fine structure dynamics from the X-ray images observed with the XRT. One of the fine structures observed by
XRT is an expanding loop. The loop appears near the footpoint of the jet when the footpoint brightening is
observed. Additionally, we have found that the X-ray jets begin just after the expanding loop 'breaks'. Other fine
structures discovered by XRT are thread-like features along the axis of the jets. XRT has shown that these thread
structures compose the cross-section of jets. The fine structures and their motions strongly support the X-ray jet
model based on magnetic reconnection, and also suggest that we must consider the three-dimensional
configuration of magnetic field to understand jet phenomenon.@In the paper, we also discuss the magnetic
environment at X-ray jets sites and the temperature structure of X-ray jets.
