Further Evidence for the Minifilament-Eruption Scenario for Solar Polar Coronal Jets

Tomi K. Baikie, Alphonse C. Sterling, Ronald L. Moore +4

We examine a sampling of 23 polar-coronal-hole jets. We first identified the jets in soft X-ray (SXR) images from the X-ray telescope (XRT) on the Hinode spacecraft, over 2014-2016…

A Comparison of Flare Forecasting Methods. IV. Evaluating Consecutive-Day Forecasting Patterns

Sung-Hong Park, K. D. Leka, Kanya Kusano +21

A crucial challenge to successful flare prediction is forecasting periods that transition between "flare-quiet" and "flare-active". Building on earlier studies in this series (Barn…

A Comparison of Flare Forecasting Methods. III. Systematic Behaviors of Operational Solar Flare Forecasting Systems

K. D. Leka, Sung-Hong Park, Kanya Kusano +21

A workshop was recently held at Nagoya University (31 October - 02 November 2017), sponsored by the Center for International Collaborative Research, at the Institute for Space-Eart…

A Comparison of Flare Forecasting Methods. II. Benchmarks, Metrics and Performance Results for Operational Solar Flare Forecasting Systems

K. D. Leka, Sung-Hong Park, Kanya Kusano +21

Solar flares are extremely energetic phenomena in our Solar System. Their impulsive, often drastic radiative increases, in particular at short wavelengths, bring immediate impacts…

A Two-Sided-Loop X-Ray Solar Coronal Jet Driven by a Minifilament Eruption

Alphonse C. Sterling, Louise K. Harra, Ronald L. Moore +1

Most of the commonly discussed solar coronal jets are of the type consisting of a single spire extending approximately vertically from near the solar surface into the corona. Recen…

Small-scale filament eruptions as the driver of solar coronal hole X-ray jets

Alphonse C. Sterling, Ronald L. Moore, David A. Falconer +1

Solar X-ray jets are evidently made by a burst of reconnection of closed magnetic field in a jet's base with ambient "open" field (1,2). In the widely-accepted version of the "emer…
