Test particle sampling and particle acceleration in a 2D coronal plasmoid-mediated reconnecting current sheet

Eilif S. Øyre, Boris V. Gudiksen, Lyndsay Fletcher

Context: Solar flares accelerate electrons, creating non-thermal energy distributions. However, the acceleration sites and dominant acceleration mechanisms remain largely unknown.…

Chromospheric velocities in an M3.2 flare using He I 1083.0 nm and Ca II 854.2 nm

C. Kuckein, M. Collados, A. Asensio Ramos +6

We study the chromospheric LOS velocities during the GOES M3.2 flare (SOL2013-05-17T08:43) using simultaneous spectroscopic data of the He I 1083.0 nm triplet and Ca II 854.2 nm li…

Hard X-rays from the deep solar atmosphere. An unusual UV burst with flare properties

L. P. Chitta, I. G. Hannah, L. Fletcher +4

Explosive transient events occur throughout the solar atmosphere. The differing manifestations range from coronal mass ejections to Ellerman bombs. The former may have negligible s…

A Bayesian method for detecting stellar flares

M. Pitkin, D. Williams, L. Fletcher +1

We present a Bayesian-odds-ratio-based algorithm for detecting stellar flares in light curve data. We assume flares are described by a model in which there is a rapid rise with a h…

Modeling the Longitudinal Asymmetry in Sunspot Emergence -- the Role of the Wilson Depression

Fraser Watson, Lyndsay Fletcher, Silvia Dalla +1

The distributions of sunspot longitude at first appearance and at disappearance display an east-west asymmetry that results from a reduction in visibility as one moves from disk ce…
