Global Energetics of Solar Flares. XI. Flare Magnitude Predictions of the GOES-Class
Markus J. Aschwanden
In this study we determine scaling relationships of observed solar flares that can be used to predict upper limits of the GOES-class magnitude of solar flares. The flare prediction…
Global Energetics of Solar Flares: X. Petschek Reconnection Rate and Alfven Mach Number of Magnetic Reconnection Outflows
Markus J. Aschwanden
We investigate physical scaling laws for magnetic energy dissipation in solar flares, in the framework of the Sweet-Parker model and the Petschek model. We find that the total diss…
Global Energetics of Solar Flares. XII. Energy Scaling Laws
Markus J. Aschwanden
In this study we test 30 variants of 5 physical scaling laws that describe different aspects of solar flares. We express scaling laws in terms of the magnetic potential field energ…
Torsional Alfvénic Oscillations Discovered in the Magnetic Free Energy During Solar Flares
Markus J. Aschwanden, Tongjiang Wang
We report the discovery of torsional Alfvénic oscillations in solar flares, which modulate the time evolution of the magnetic free energy , while the magnetic potential ene…
