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

On the expected $\gamma$-ray emission from nearby flaring stars [PDF]
, 2017 Stellar flares have been extensively studied in soft X-rays (SXR) by basically every X-ray mission. Hard X-ray (HXR) emission from stellar superflares, however, have only been detected from a handful of objects over the past years. One very extreme event

Solar and Stellar Flares [PDF]
Highlights 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]
International 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]
International 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-

A Systematic Study of X-Ray Flares from Low-Mass Young Stellar Objects in the Rho Ophiuchi Star-Forming Region with Chandra [PDF]
, 2003 We report on the results of a systematic study of X-ray flares from low-mass young stellar objects, using Chandra observations of the main region of the Rho Oph.

Flares: the Solar-Stellar Connection [PDF]
International 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

Solar and Stellar Flares: Frequency, Active Regions, and Stellar Dynamo
The Astrophysical Journal, 2022 Abstract We demonstrate that for weak flares the dependence of their frequency occurrence on spottedness can be rather weak. The fact is that such flares can occur in both small and large active regions. At the same time, powerful large flares of classes M and X occur much more often in large active regions. In energy estimates, the mean

The role of nonthermal electrons in the optical continuum of stellar flares [PDF]
, 2000 We explore the possibility that the continuum emission in stellar flares is powered by nonthermal electrons accelerated during the flares. We compute the continuum spectra from an atmospheric model for a dMe star, AD Leo, at its quiescent state, when ...

Investigating the Rotational Phase of Stellar Flares on M dwarfs Using K2 Short Cadence Data [PDF]
, 2018 We present an analysis of K2 short cadence data of 34 M dwarfs which have spectral types in the range M0 - L1. Of these stars, 31 showed flares with a duration between $\sim$10-90 min.
