From Coronal Observations to MHD Simulations, the Building Blocks for 3D Models of Solar Flares (Invited Review) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Solar flares are energetic events taking place in the Sun’s atmosphere, and their effects can greatly impact the environment of the surrounding planets. In particular, eruptive flares, as opposed to confined flares, launch coronal mass ejections into the

Particle Acceleration in Solar Flares [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989
AbstractParticle acceleration during solar flares is a complex process where the main ‘actors’ (Direct (D.C.) or turbulent electric fields) are hidden from us. It is easy to construct a successful particle accelertion model if we are allowed to impose on the flaring region arbitrary conditions (e.g., strength and scale length of the D.C.

Fine structure events in microwave emission during solar minimum

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2019
The solar minimum is a period with a relatively smaller number of sunspots and solar eruptions, and has been less studied before. Since the radio signal rapidly responds to the change of solar plasma and magnetic field, we perform a comprehensive ...

Managing and mitigating future public health risks: Planetary boundaries, global catastrophic risk, and inclusive wealth

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract There are two separate conceptualizations for assessing existential risks: Planetary Boundaries (PBs) and global catastrophic risks (GCRs). While these concepts are similar in principle, their underpinning literatures tend not to engage with each other.

Solar flares, coronal mass ejections and solar energetic particle event characteristics

open access: yes, 2016
A new catalogue of 314 solar energetic particle (SEP) events extending over a large time span from 1984 to 2013 has been compiled. The properties as well as the associations of these SEP events with their parent solar sources have been thoroughly ...

Comparison of UV Ceti Flares with Solar Flares [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1975
During several intervals totalling 26 h, 84 flares of UV Ceti were observed using a photometer with 1 s time resolution. Using solar flare terminology, all flares of UV Ceti observed here can be characterized by a typical light curve, consisting of a preflare, a flash and a slow phase.

Cycle 23 Variation in Solar Flare Productivity

open access: yes, 2013
The NOAA listings of solar flares in cycles 21-24, including the GOES soft X-ray magnitudes, enable a simple determination of the number of flares each flaring active region produces over its lifetime.

Embracing the politics of transformation: Policy action as “battle‐settlement events”

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Societal transformations for addressing climate change are intensely contested and at risk of resistance and backlash to ambitious policy action. But they are frequently modeled through heuristics such as S‐curves which abstract from such conflicts, assuming increasing returns to scale as a driver of transformations.

Constraints on energy release in solar flares from RHESSI and GOES X-ray observations. II. Energetics and energy partition

open access: yes, 2016
Aims. We derive constraints on energy release, transport and conversion processes in solar flares based on a detailed characterization of the physical parameters of both the thermal plasma and the accelerated nonthermal electrons based on X-ray ...
