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…
Hard X-ray Emission in AU Mic Flares: A Minor Contributor to Planetary Atmospheric Escape
Yifan Hu, Murray Brightman, Fabio Favata +7
Stellar flares are potent drivers of atmospheric evolution on orbiting exoplanets, primarily through extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and soft X-ray (XUV) irradiation. However, the contri…
First joint X-ray solar microflare observations with NuSTAR and Solar Orbiter/STIX
Natália Bajnoková, Iain G. Hannah, Kristopher Cooper +5
We present the first joint spectral and imaging analysis of hard X-ray (HXR) emission from 3 microflares observed by the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope ARray (NuSTAR) and Solar Or…
Detecting non-thermal emission in a solar microflare using nested sampling
Kristopher Cooper, Iain G. Hannah, Lindsay Glesener +1
Microflares are energetically smaller versions of solar flares, demonstrating the same processes of plasma heating and particle acceleration. However, it remains unclear down to wh…
Thermal Evolution of an Active Region through Quiet and Flaring Phases as Observed by NuSTAR XRT, and AIA
Jessie Duncan, Reed B. Masek, Albert Y. Shih +6
Solar active regions contain a broad range of temperatures, with the thermal plasma distribution often observed to peak in the few millions of kelvin. Differential emission measure…
