Performance of Major Flare Watches from the Max Millennium Program (2001-2010)

D. Shaun Bloomfield, Peter T. Gallagher, William H. Marquette +2

The physical processes that trigger solar flares are not well understood and significant debate remains around processes governing particle acceleration, energy partition, and part…

Achieving Consistent Doppler Measurements from SDO/HMI Vector Field Inversions

P. W. Schuck, Spiro Antiochos, K. D. Leka +1

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory is delivering vector field observations of the full solar disk with unprecedented temporal and spatial resolution; however, the satellite is in a…

White-Light Continuum in Stellar Flares

Adam F. Kowalski

In this talk, we discuss the formation of the near-ultraviolet and optical continuum emission in M dwarf flares through the formation of a dense, heated chromospheric condensation.…

Flare Footpoint Regions and a Surge Observed by the Hinode/EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS), RHESSI, and SDO/AIA

George A. Doschek, Harry P. Warren, Brian R. Dennis +2

The Extreme-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on the Hinode spacecraft observed flare footpoint regions coincident with a surge for a M3.7 flare observed on 25 September 2011…

How gas-dynamic flare models powered by Petschek reconnection differ from those with ad hoc energy sources

Dana Longcope, Jim Klimchuk

Aspects of solar flare dynamics, such as chromospheric evaporation and flare light-curves, have long been studied using one-dimensional models of plasma dynamics inside a static fl…

High-temperature differential emission measure and altitude variations in the temperature and density of solar flare coronal X-ray sources

Natasha Jeffrey, Eduard Kontar, Brian Dennis

The detailed knowledge of plasma heating and acceleration region properties presents a major observational challenge in solar flare physics. Using the Ramaty High Energy Solar Spec…
