The proton flare of August 28, 1966
The proton flare of August 28, 1966 began on H α records at 15 h 21 m 35 s UT. It presented an unusually complex development with flare emission occurring in two distinct plages. The brightest part of the flare attained maximum intensity, 152 % of the continuum, between 15 h 30 m and 15 h 32 m UT. Photometric measurements show that a long-enduring part of the flare continued to decline in intensity until at least 21 h 20 m UT.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43737/1/11207_2004_Article_BF00148084.pd
Some comments on flares after many years of observation
Ground based observations of flares are reviewed to seek implications for a flare build-up on either a long or a short time scale. Plots of flare frequency and importance for certain individual centers of activity suggest a possible crescendo in flare occurrence days and hours before the development of large and significant flares. The X-ray records follow the same pattern of apparent build-up. A possible dependence between successive major flares, as phases one and two of a single complex flare event, suggests that the time scale in which the total flare event takes place may show extreme variation.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43743/1/11207_2004_Article_BF00152264.pd
Major Hα flares in centers of activity with very small or no spots
Major Hα flares (importance âȘ 2) in plages with only small or no spots constitute a rare but well observed aspect of solar activity. Information relating to 83 such flares has been assembled and studied. In the years 1956â1968 these flares represented ⌠7% of all confirmed flares of importance âȘ 2. In general, the flares were of unusually long duration and rose to maximum intensity slowly. A flash phase was often absent or poorly defined. In a number of cases, the flare emission included two bright filaments more or less parallel. The flares usually occurred during the late, flare-poor phase of a center of activity, and their outbreak did not presage a resurgence of activity in subsequent rotations. The flares were frequently associated with the position of dark filaments.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43710/1/11207_2004_Article_BF00153560.pd
