Stellar flares

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Solar Physics
Magnetic storms on stars manifest as remarkable, randomly occurring changes of the luminosity over durations that are tiny in comparison to the normal evolution of stars.

Solar–Stellar Connection: X-Ray Flares to Energetic (E > 10 MeV) Particle Events

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
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 ...

Solar and stellar flares: Questions and problems [PDF]

open access: yesSolar Physics, 1989
AbstractAlthough progress has been made in understanding certain aspects of the physics of solar and stellar flares, there are a number of topics which, in the author's opinion, still pose a problem. We summarize these topics here.

Self-organized Criticality in Stellar Flares [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2021
Abstract Power-law size distributions are the hallmarks of nonlinear energy dissipation processes governed by self-organized criticality (SOC). Here we analyze 75 data sets of stellar flare size distributions, mostly obtained from the Extreme-Ultraviolet Explorer and the Kepler mission.

On the gamma-activity of stellar flares [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990
The principal possibility of γ-ray manifestation of stellar flares in the framework of pinch-model is shown. Validity of assumption that, γ-bursts are connected with magnetically active dwarfs (MAD) is discussed.

White-light Superflare and Long-term Activity of the Nearby M7-type Binary EI Cnc Observed with GWAC System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Stellar white-light flares are believed to play an essential role in the physical and chemical properties of the atmosphere of the surrounding exoplanets.

Radio Stars of the SKA

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Radio emission from stars can be used, for example, to study ionized winds or stellar flares. The radio emission is faint and studies have been limited to few objects.

Bridging High-density Electron Beam Coronal Transport and Deep Chromospheric Heating in Stellar Flares

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The optical and near-ultraviolet (NUV) continuum radiation in M-dwarf flares is thought to be the impulsive response of the lower stellar atmosphere to magnetic energy release and electron acceleration at coronal altitudes.

A review of stellar flares and their characteristics [PDF]

open access: yesSolar Physics, 1989
AbstractWe review the flaring activity of stars across the HR-diagram. Brightenings have been reported along the entire Main Sequence and in many stars off the Main Sequence. Some stars are decidedly young, others are in advanced stages of stellar evolution. Flares are common on stars with outer convection zones and outbursts have been reported also on

Analysis of Solar-like X-class Flare on Wolf 359 Observed Simultaneously with TESS and XMM-Newton

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an analysis of a flare on the Wolf 359 star based on simultaneous observations of Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and XMM-Newton. A stellar flare with energy comparable to an X-class solar flare is analyzed on this star for the first ...
