Optical properties of impulsive flares
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1990 The optical and morphological properties of impulsive flares are examined, showing that all impulsive flares occur close to sunspots and on magnetic inversion lines with steep gradients. Impulsive flares are defined and flare brightness variations and the magnetic structure of flares are discussed.

Multiwavelength Observations of 6 BL Lac Objects in 2008-2012
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013 We present results of 4 years of VLBA monitoring along with γ-ray and optical R-band photometric observations of 6 BL Lac objects (3C 66A, S5 0716+71, PKS 0735+17, S4 0954+68, W Com, and OT 081).

A Possible Mechanism for the “Late Phase” in Stellar White-light Flares
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 M dwarf flares observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) sometimes exhibit a peak-bump light-curve morphology, characterized by a secondary, gradual peak well after the main, impulsive peak.

GRB Flares: UV/Optical Flaring (Paper I)
, 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 ...

Optical Flare Search on the RS CVn-type flare stars AR Lacertae
, 2022 We present the results of fast spectrophotometry of flares on the RS CVn-type star AR Lac with a time resolution of 34 s and a spectroscopic resolution R $\sim $ 1300. The observations were performed on July 21-22, 2021 with the 2.0 m Karl Zeiss telescope at the Terskol Observatory.

Optical Polarimetry and Radio Observations of PKS1510-089 between 2009 and 2013
Galaxies, 2018 The blazar PKS 1510-089 has shown intense activity at γ -rays in the recent years. In this work, we discussed the results of our 7 mm radio continuum and optical polarimetric monitoring between 2009 and 2013. In 2009, we detected a large rotation of

Frontiers in Physics, 2021 The time sweeps of images of optical breakdown plasma flashes under irradiation of aqueous solutions of Fe nanoparticles with Nd: YAG laser radiation (λ = 1,064 nm, τ = 10 ns, ν = 10 kHz, ε = 2 mJ) are studied. It is shown that the sizes of plasma flares,

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Foot orthoses are thought to improve pain by potentially modifying internal mechanical forces. To test this, we explored whether foot orthoses can modify patterns of bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in people with midfoot pain. Methods Forty‐two people were recruited with midfoot pain, and magnetic resonance imaging–confirmed midfoot BMLs ...
