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.

AbstractThere are many types of solar flare, but the classic type is a two-ribbon flare with three phases — a preflare phase, a rise phase and a main phase. The properties of these phases are described, together with some recent observational advances in understanding the conditions for solar flares.

Electric Currents through J-shaped and Non-J-shaped Flare Ribbons [PDF]
Recently solar flares exhibiting a double J-shaped ribbons in the lower solar atmosphere have been paid increasing attention in the context of extending the two-dimensional standard flare model to three dimensions, as motivated by the spatial correlation between photospheric current channels and flare ribbons.

Estimating the frequency of extremely energetic solar events, based on solar, stellar, lunar, and terrestrial records [PDF]
The most powerful explosions on the Sun [...] drive the most severe space-weather storms. Proxy records of flare energies based on SEPs in principle may offer the longest time base to study infrequent large events.

Diagnostics of solar flare reconnection [PDF]
Abstract. We present new diagnostics of the solar flare reconnection, mainly based on the plasma radio emission. We propose that the high-frequency (600-2000 MHz) slowly drifting pulsating structures map the flare magnetic field reconnection. These structures correspond to the radio emission from plasmoids which are formed in the extended current sheet

Full-Disk Solar Flare Forecasting Model Based on Data Mining Method
Solar flare is one of the violent solar eruptive phenomena; many solar flare forecasting models are built based on the properties of active regions. However, most of these models only focus on active regions within 30° of solar disk center because of the

Solar–Stellar Connection: X-Ray Flares to Energetic (E > 10 MeV) Particle Events
Energetic particle environments are an important factor for the viability of life on exoplanets surrounding flare stars. In the heliosphere, large gradual solar energetic ( E > 10 MeV) particle (SEP) events are produced by shocks from fast coronal mass ...

Chromospheric Bubbles in Solar Flares [PDF]
Abstract We analyze a grid of radiative hydrodynamic simulations of solar flares to study the energy balance and response of the atmosphere to nonthermal electron beam heating. The appearance of chromospheric bubbles is one of the most notable features that we find in the simulations.

Properties and Energetics of Magnetic Reconnection: I. Evolution of Flare Ribbons [PDF]
In this article, we measure the mean magnetic shear from the morphological evolution of flare ribbons, and examine the evolution of flare thermal and non-thermal X-ray emissions during the progress of flare reconnection. We analyze three eruptive flares and three confined flares ranging from GOES class C8.0 to M7.0.
