The Association of Solar Radio Bursts with Eruptive and Confined Flares

Stephen M. White, Maria D. Kazachenko, Edward W. Cliver

We classify the metric radio emission associated with eruptive (CME-associated) and confined flares using the sample of events between 2010 and 2016 identified by Kazachenko (2023)…

A Statistical Survey of Faint Solar X-ray Transients Observed by NuSTAR

Reed B. Masek, Lindsay Glesener, Jessie Duncan +14

In this paper, we use a highly sensitive telescope to characterize solar X-ray transients ranging from microflares in active regions down to weakly energetic brightenings in the qu…

Quiet Sun impulsive events observed with NuSTAR during solar minimum

Sarah Paterson, Iain G. Hannah, Brian W. Grefenstette +6

The investigation of small-scale energy release in the Sun's atmosphere is important in understanding how the corona is heated. Previous work has been able to study small EUV and S…

Observations of a Faint Nonthermal Onset before a GOES C-class Flare

Natália Bajnoková, Iain G. Hannah, Hannah Collier +6

We present analysis of a GOES C1-class flare from 2022 September 6, which was jointly observed as occulted by Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope ARray (NuSTAR) and on-disk by Spectrom…

The greatest GOES soft X-ray flares: Saturation and recalibration over two Hale cycles

Hugh Hudson, Ed Cliver, Stephen White +5

The solar soft X-ray observations from the GOES satellites provide one of the best quantitative records of solar activity, with nearly continuous flare records since 1975. We prese…

NuSTAR Observation of Energy Release in Eleven Solar Microflares

Jessie Duncan, Lindsay Glesener, Brian W. Grefenstette +6

Solar flares are explosive releases of magnetic energy. Hard X-ray (HXR) flare emission originates from both hot (millions of Kelvin) plasma and nonthermal accelerated particles, g…
