High-resolution observations of flare precursors in the low solar atmosphere [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2017
Solar flares are generally believed to be powered by free magnetic energy stored in the corona1, but the build up of coronal energy alone may be insufficient to trigger the flare to occur2.

GAMMA-RAY BURST FLARES: ULTRAVIOLET/OPTICAL FLARING. I. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2013
We present a new algorithm for the detection of flares in gamma-ray burst (GRB) light curves and use this algorithm to detect flares in the UV/optical. The algorithm makes use of the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) to analyze the residuals of the fitted light curve, removing all major features, and to determine the statistically best fit to the ...

Structural Evolution During Repeated Spray Deposition of FeCl₃‐Doped Poly(Styrene)‐b‐Poly(4‐Vinyl Pyridine) Layers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The structure formation mechanism of pure poly(styrene)‐b‐poly(4‐vinyl pyridine) (PS‐b‐P4VP) and hybrid PS‐b‐P4VP/FeCl₃ films during and after spray deposition is investigated. The morphological differences result from the interplay among the complexation between FeCl₃ and P4VP segments, the crystallization of the P4VP segment, and the surface ...

Gradual Solar Coronal Dimming and Evolution of Coronal Mass Ejection in the Early Phase

open access: yes, 2017
We report observations of a two-stage coronal dimming in an eruptive event of a two-ribbon flare and a fast coronal mass ejection (CME). Weak gradual dimming persists for more than half an hour before the onset of the two-ribbon flare and the fast rise ...

The development of lower-atmosphere turbulence early in a solar flare [PDF]

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
IRIS observation of the initiation of a solar flare suggests that turbulence helps to heat the Sun’s lower atmosphere. We present the first observational study of the onset and evolution of solar flare turbulence in the lower solar atmosphere on an ...

Solar flares

open access: yesVistas in Astronomy, 1974
When we look at a solar flare we observe at relatively close hand a sample of the most energetic phenomena in the universe. These dynamic eruptions can only truly be appreciated from time-lapse movies or spectra. They fill the interplanetary medium with cosmic rays and shock waves, and produce plasmas with temperatures of 50 million degrees.

An “A star” on an M star during a flare within a flare [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010
AbstractM dwarfs produce explosive flare emission in the near-UV and optical continuum, and the mechanism responsible for this phenomenon is not well-understood. We present a near-UV/optical flare spectrum from the rise phase of a secondary flare, which occurred during the decay of a much larger flare.

Topological Berry Antenna on a Silicon Chip for Terahertz Wireless Communication

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
The on‐chip topological Berry antenna for 6G to Xth‐generation wireless communication is designed via integrating various Berry curvatures for an enhanced antenna aperture and radiation gain. This THz antenna has demonstrated a maximum gain of 17 dBi and chip‐to‐chip wireless communications at 20 Gbps over a distance of 15 cm.

Dynamic reliability assessment of flare systems by combining fault tree analysis and Bayesian networks

open access: yesEnergy Sources, Part A: Recovery, Utilization, and Environmental Effects, 2019
Flaring is a combustion process commonly used in the oil and gas industry to dispose flammable waste gases. Flare flameout occurs when these gases escape unburnt from the flare tip causing the discharge of flammable and/or toxic vapor clouds.

Rapid Buildup of a Magnetic Flux Rope during a Confined X2.2 Class Flare in NOAA AR 12673 [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
Magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) are believed to be the core structure in solar eruptions; nevertheless, their formation remains intensely debated. Here we report a rapid buildup process of an MFR system during a confined X2.2 class flare occurred on 2017 ...
