Shape-based Feature Engineering for Solar Flare Prediction

Varad Deshmukh, Thomas Berger, James Meiss +1

Solar flares are caused by magnetic eruptions in active regions (ARs) on the surface of the sun. These events can have significant impacts on human activity, many of which can be m…

Quiescent prominence dynamics observed with the Hinode Solar Optical Telescope . II. Prominence Bubble Boundary Layer Characteristics and the Onset of a Coupled Kelvin-Helmholtz Rayleigh-Taylor Instability

Thomas Berger, Andrew Hillier, Wei Liu

We analyze solar quiescent prominence bubble characteristics and instability dynamics using Hinode/Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) data. We measure bubble expansion rate, prominence…

SDO/AIA Detection of Solar Prominence Formation within a Coronal Cavity

Thomas E. Berger, Wei Liu, B. C. Low

We report the first analyses of SDO/AIA observations of the formation of a quiescent polar crown prominence in a coronal cavity. The He II 304 Å (log T_{max} ~ 4.8 K) data show bot…
