Reconstructing the XUV Spectra of Active Sun-like Stars Using Solar Scaling Relations with Magnetic Flux

Kosuke Namekata, Shin Toriumi, Vladimir S. Airapetian +3

Kepler Space Telescope and Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite unveiled that Sun-like stars frequently host exoplanets. These exoplanets are subject to fluxes of ionizing radiati…

A Solar Magnetic-fan Flaring Arch Heated by Non-thermal Particles and Hot Plasma from an X-ray Jet Eruption

Kyoung-Sun Lee, Hirohisa Hara, Kyoko Watanabe +10

We have investigated an M1.3 limb flare, which develops as a magnetic loop/arch that fans out from an X-ray jet. Using Hinode/EIS, we found that the temperature increases with heig…

Nowcast of an EUV dynamic spectrum during solar flares

Toshiki Kawai, Shinsuke Imada, Shohei Nishimoto +2

In addition to X-rays, extreme ultraviolet (EUV) rays radiated from solar flares can cause serious problems, such as communication failures and satellite drag. Therefore, methods f…

Statistical Study of Solar White-light Flares and Comparison with Superflares on Solar-type Stars

Kosuke Namekata, Takahito Sakaue, Kyoko Watanabe +9

Recently, many superflares on solar-type stars were discovered as white-light flares (WLFs). A correlation between the energies (E) and durations (t) of superflares is derived as $…

Characteristics that Produce White-Light Enhancements in Solar Flares Observed by Hinode/SOT

Kyoko Watanabe, Jun Kitagawa, Satoshi Masuda

To understand the conditions that produce white-light (WL) enhancements in solar flares, a statistical analysis of visible continuum data as observed by Hinode/Solar Optical Telesc…

IRIS, Hinode, SDO, and RHESSI observations of a white light flare produced directly by non-thermal electrons

Kyoung-Sun Lee, Shinsuke Imada, Kyoko Watanabe +2

An X1.6 flare occurred in AR 12192 on 2014 October 22 at 14:02 UT and was observed by Hinode, IRIS, SDO, and RHESSI. We analyze a bright kernel which produces a white light (WL) fl…

Validation of a Scaling Law for the Coronal Magnetic Field Strengths and Loop Lengths of Solar and Stellar Flares

Kosuke Namekata, Takahito Sakaue, Kyoko Watanabe +2

Shibata & Yokoyama (1999, 2002) proposed a method of estimating the coronal magnetic field strengths () and magnetic loop lengths () of solar and stellar flares, on the basis…
