Estimations of Elemental Abundances During Solar Flares Observed in Soft X-rays by the MinXSS-1 CubeSat Mission
Crisel Suarez, Christopher S. Moore
Solar flares are complex phenomena emitting all types of electromagnetic radiation, and accelerating particles on timescales of minutes, converting magnetic energy to thermal, radi…
First Results for Solar Soft X-ray Irradiance Measurements from the Third Generation Miniature X-Ray Solar Spectrometer
Thomas N. Woods, Bennet Schwab, Robert Sewell +11
Three generations of the Miniature X-ray Solar Spectrometer (MinXSS) have flown on small satellites with the goal "to explore the energy distribution of soft X-ray (SXR) emissions…
Soft X-Ray Observations of Quiescent Solar Active Regions using Novel Dual-zone Aperture X-ray Solar Spectrometer (DAXSS)
Bennet D. Schwab, Robert H. A. Sewell, Thomas N. Woods +3
The Dual-zone Aperture X-ray Solar Spectrometer (DAXSS) was flown on 2018 June18 on the NASA 36.336 sounding rocket flight and obtained the highest resolution to date for solar sof…
Simulating Solar Flare Irradiance with Multithreaded Models of Flare Arcades
Jeffrey W. Reep, Harry P. Warren, Christopher S. Moore +2
Understanding how energy is released in flares is one of the central problems of solar and stellar astrophysics. Observations of high temperature flare plasma hold many potential c…
