Abstract We explored the quasi‐periodic pulsations (QPPs) at multiple periods during an X4.0 flare on 2024 May 10 (SOL2024‐05‐10T06:27), which occurred in the complex active region of NOAA 13664. The flare radiation reveals five prominent periods in multiple wavelengths. A 8‐min QPP is simultaneously detected in wavelengths of HXR, radio, UV/EUV, Ly, and white light, which may be associated with nonthermal electrons periodically accelerated by intermittent magnetic reconnection that is modulated by the slow wave. A quasi‐period at 14 min is observed in the SXR and high‐temperature EUV wavebands, and it may be caused by repeatedly heated plasmas in hot flare loops. A quasi‐period at about 18 min is only observed by STIX, with reconstructed SXR images suggesting that the 18‐min period pulsations should be considered as different flares. Meanwhile, a 3‐min QPP is simultaneously detected in wavelengths of HXR, radio, and UV/EUV, which is directly modulated by the slow magnetoacoustic wave leaking from sunspot umbrae. At last, a 2‐min QPP is simultaneously detected in HXR and radio emissions during the pre‐flare phase, which is possibly generated by a quasi‐periodic regime of magnetic reconnection that is triggered by the kink wave.
