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 ...

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.

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 ...

Stellar flares with PLATO

open access: yes, 2023
Stellar flares are powerful localized eruptions caused by magnetic reconnection events in a star's magnetosphere that can be seen across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Over short timescales of minutes to a few hours, they emit energies up to 10^38 erg.

Solar and Stellar Flares [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 1989
AbstractThis review concentrates on some selected topics concerning the release of magnetic energy and associated phenomena in flares. Emphasis is on microflares, recent studies of different phases of flares, and propagation and trapping of flare accelerated electrons. The ongoing analysis of the observations of the previous solar cycle reaches a state

Radio Emission from Stellar Flares [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989
AbstractAn overview is given of the observations of stellar radio ‘flares', defined as radio emission which is both variable in time and created by explosive releases of magnetic energy. The main sources of such flares are late-type Main-Sequence stars, classic close binaries, X-ray binaries, and pre-Main-Sequence stars.We summarize the interpretations

Stellar Flare Statistics - Physical Consequences [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989
AbstractThe observational data permit us to establish clear statistical correlations between different parameters of stellar flare activity and the characteristics of quiet stars. These relations are: (i)between energies and frequencies of flares on stars of different luminosities;(ii)between total radiation energies of flares and quiet stars both in X-

Flares: the Solar-Stellar Connection [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1995
The systematic study of stellar flares in now more than 30 years old. Throughout that time the solar flare paradigm has been used, highly successfully, to understand various aspects of the stellar phenomenon. In this introductory overview I will attempt to justify the use of the solar model in understanding the stellar equivalent. But I will also point
