Verification of operational solar flare forecast: Case of Regional Warning Center Japan [PDF]
In this article, we discuss a verification study of an operational solar flare forecast in the Regional Warning Center (RWC) Japan. The RWC Japan has been issuing four-categorical deterministic solar flare forecasts for a long time.

Unprecedented Fine Structure of a Solar Flare Revealed by the 1.6 m New Solar Telescope. [PDF]
Solar flares signify the sudden release of magnetic energy and are sources of so called space weather. The fine structures (below 500 km) of flares are rarely observed and are accessible to only a few instruments world-wide.

Mars Upper Atmospheric Responses to the 10 September 2017 Solar Flare: A Global, Time‐Dependent Simulation [PDF]
We report the first global, time‐dependent simulation of the Mars upper atmospheric responses to a realistic solar flare event, an X8.2 eruption on 10 September 2017.

Observation of a reversal of rotation in a sunspot during a solar flare [PDF]
Back reaction of coronal magnetic fields on the solar surface may help to understand the coronal reconfiguration during a solar flare. Here the authors report observation of reversal of the rotation of a sunspot during a X1.6 flare with data from HMI.

Omori’s Law in the Occurrence of Solar Flare : Approach of Hybrid Model [PDF]
Solar flares are large-scale phenomena that have a significant effect on theEarth’s climate. Using the solar flare time series from January 1, 2006 to July 21, 2016,we develop a complex network for predicting solar flares.

Probability Distribution Functions of Solar and Stellar Flares
The paper studies the soft X-ray data of solar flares and found that the distribution functions of flare fluence are successfully modeled by tapered power law or gamma function distributions whose power exponent is slightly smaller than 2, indicating ...

Statistical analysis for EUV dynamic spectra and their impact on the ionosphere during solar flares
The X-rays and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emitted during solar flares can rapidly change the physical composition of Earth’s ionosphere, causing space weather phenomena.

Comparison of VLF Signal Responses to Solar Flares along Daytime and Nighttime Propagation Paths
Solar flares have a severe impact on the near-earth space environment, during which the VLF signals observed by the ground-based instrument exhibit abnormal changes.

INCREASES IN SCR ENERGETIC PROTON FLUXES ON EARTH AND THEIR RELATION TO SOLAR SOURCES
Logachev catalog data for solar cycle 23 has been used to study the dependence of measured increases in solar cosmic rays (SCRs) on solar perturbations. The efficiency of recording the SCR increases, driven by proton acceleration in the corona, on Earth ...

Detection of Solar Neutrons and Solar Neutron Decay Protons
Solar flares are broadly classified as impulsive or gradual. Ions accelerated in a gradual flare are thought to be accelerated through a shock acceleration mechanism, but the particle acceleration process in an impulsive flare is still largely unexplored.
