A White-light Flare Powered by Magnetic Reconnection in the Lower Solar Atmosphere

Yongliang Song, Hui Tian, Xiaoshuai Zhu +3

White-light flares (WLFs), first observed in 1859, refer to a type of solar flares showing an obvious enhancement of the visible continuum emission. This type of enhancement often…

Generalisation of the Magnetic Field Configuration of typical and atypical Confined Flares

Navin Chandra Joshi, Xiaoshuai Zhu, Brigitte Schmieder +6

Atypical flares cannot be naturally explained with standard models. To predict such flares, we need to define their physical characteristics, in particular, their magnetic environm…
