Non-linear force-free field modeling of a solar active region around the time of a major flare and coronal mass ejection

C. J. Schrijver, M. L. DeRosa, T. Metcalf +14

Solar flares and coronal mass ejections are associated with rapid changes in field connectivity and powered by the partial dissipation of electrical currents in the solar atmospher…

A Statistical Solar Flare Forecast Method

M. S. Wheatland

A Bayesian approach to solar flare prediction has been developed, which uses only the event statistics of flares already observed. The method is simple, objective, and makes few ad…

Combined and Comparative Analysis of Power Spectra

P. A. Sturrock, J. D. Scargle, G. Walther +1

In solar physics, especially in exploratory stages of research, it is often necessary to compare the power spectra of two or more time series. One may, for instance, wish to estima…

Initial test of a Bayesian approach to solar flare prediction

M. S. Wheatland

A test of a new Bayesian approach to solar flare prediction (Wheatland 2004a) is presented. The approach uses the past history of flaring together with phenomenological rules of fl…

A Bayesian Approach to Solar Flare Prediction

M. S. Wheatland

A number of methods of flare prediction rely on classification of physical characteristics of an active region, in particular optical classification of sunspots, and historical rat…

Testing Circuit Models for the Energies of Coronal Magnetic Field Configurations

M. S. Wheatland, F. J. Farvis

Circuit models involving bulk currents and inductances are often used to estimate the energies of coronal magnetic field configurations, in particular configurations associated wit…
