    About the onsets of closely-consecutive homologous flares (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The onsets of closely consecutive homologous flares (CCHF), which are separated by less than 6 hours and most often by about 1 hour, are compared with that of isolated flares (no flare in the region half a day before). Isolated flares appear to be formed of two components, a surging arch and a flaring arch, while a set of CCHF may be composed of consecutive elementary flares or of a series of complex ones. It is shown that the onset of eruptive flare phenomena is not the same for an isolated event and for a member of CCHF (excluding the first) as found in H-alpha and EUV observations, and probably in X-ray observations also. It is suggested that a CCHF set would become a single flare with episodic enhancement of brightness by taking account of the common H-alpha behavior of surging and flaring arches as well as the EUV emission.

    Unusual coronal activity following the flare of 6 November 1980 (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The major two-ribbon flare that occurred on November 6, 1980 is discussed, using data from the hard X-ray imaging spectrometer aboard the SMM satellite. The post-flare X-ray arch and loops are analyzed, showing the flare characteristics, the coronal arch, the time variations of X-rays after the flare, and the time variation of the maximum intensity at the top of the coronal arch in the 3.5-5.5 keV range. A comparison is made with an earlier arch. The post-flare conronal brightness variations are discussed, including a correlation with a 169 MHz noise stomr, the absence of chromospheric excitation, the brightness and temperature of the X-ray arch, the locations of the brightenings, and the details of the first and fifth brightenings. Problems posed by the observations are discussed.

    Purely coronal flare-like variations (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Quasiperiodic X-ray, UV, microwave, and metric-wave variations after a solar flare on November 6, 1980 are reported and analyzed, based on observational data from SMM (HXRBS, UVSP, HXIS), GOES-2, the 100-m radiotelescope at Bonn, and the Nancay radioheliograph. The maxima of the 13 brightenings observed are listed and characterized; a comparison is made with a 'normal' flare at 17:26 UT on the same day. The HXIS and UVSP data are discussed in terms of the physical properties, X-ray flux, O V flux, and H-alpha flux. The variations are found to be mainly thermal and purely coronal, with no chromospheric (H-alpha) participation (in contrast to the 17:26 flare). Since strong X-ray emissions were observed which should have involved the chromosphere through magnetic-field-line heat conduction, it is proposed that the variations wre produced ina coronal plasmoid magnetically separate from the chromosphere. A mechanism for the evolution of such a plasmoid from the upper loops of a giant X-ray arch is discussed. An iterative HXIS-image-deconvolution process is presented in an appendix.

    The Queen's flare - Its structure and development; precursors, pre-flare brightenings, and aftermaths (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: A limb flare, which started at about 20:20 UT on April 30, 1980, was observed by several of the instruments on the Solar Maximum Mission (SMM) spacecraft. This flare has been the subject of a joint analysis of the SMM instruments. The present investigation represents a continuation of research reported in part by Woodgate et al. (1981) and Gabriel et al. (1981). Several questions are explored regarding the preflare activity, the evolution of the flare, and its decay. It is concluded that the X-ray brightenings observed before the flare were indicative only of the generally high level of activity from this region. They were not connected with the build-up of energy before the flare since similar brightenings were observed in the region after the flare. At least one brightening occurred at the site of the kernel before the flare. There is also some evidence of a tongue.

    Periodicities in the occurrence of aurora as indicators of solar variability (1983)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: A compilation of records of the aurora observed in China from the Time of the Legends (2000 - 3000 B.C.) to the mid-18th century has been used to infer the frequencies and strengths of solar activity prior to modern times. A merging of this analysis with auroral and solar activity patterns during the last 200 years provides basically continuous information about solar activity during the last 2000 years. The results show periodicities in solar activity that contain average components with a long period (approx. 412 years), three middle periods (approx. 38 years, approx. 77 years, and approx. 130 years), and the well known short period (approx. 11 years).

    Transient brightenings of interconnecting loops. III Interpretation (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Two alternative interpretations of the sudden X-ray brightenings observed in loops that interconnect active regions are presented. A fast tearing mode may be excited in those newly formed interconnecting loops within which sufficient magnetic free energy is stored to drive the mode. Alternatively, anomalous Joule heating driven by an inductive electric field parallel to the magnetic field, varying on a time scale of order of a minute, may cause the brightenings. It is suggested that it is plausible that the fast tearing mode may be the cause of brightenings in the young newly formed interconnecting loops, whereas the anomalous Joule heating might occur in old loop connections when an exteral disturbance propagates through them.

    Observations of a post-flare radio burst in X-rays (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: More than six hours after the two-ribbon flare of May 21, 1980, the hard X-ray spectrometer aboard the SMM imaged an extensive arch above the flare region which was found to be the lowest part of a stationary post-flare noise storm recorded at the same time at Culgoora. The bent crystal spectrometer aboard the SMM confirms that the arch emission was basically thermal. Variations in brightness and energy spectrum at one of the supposed footpoints of the arch are seen as correlation in time with radio brightness, suggesting that suprathermal particles from the radio noise regions dumped in variable quantities onto the low corona and transition layer.

    EUV arcades - Signatures of filament instability (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The present investigation is based on the EUV observations from the HCO spectroheliometer aboard Skylab. These observations provide a great deal of information on coronal structures. The investigation is concerned with the EUV corona around active region filaments. One of its goals is to define the geometry and temperature distribution around those filaments which appear to be 'stable' (lifetimes equal to or greater than 2 days). The second goal is to study time changes in structures associated with other filaments which are 'unstable'. It is pointed out that the filaments and associated EUV loops reported in this investigation are not flare-related. The data of primary interest are those of Sept. 5, 1973, for which there exist simultaneous EUV and H-alpha filtergrams for the active region McMath 12510. It is found that active region filaments lie within channels of low emissivity in EUV lines formed above 1.5 x 10 to the 6th K.

    Study of the post-flare loops on 29 July 1973. IV - Revision of T and n sub e values and comparison with the flare of 21 May 1980 (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Revised temperature and density estimates are provided in a synthesis of previous studies of the two-ribbon solar flare of July 29, 1973 and results are compared with observations of a similar event by the Solar Maximum Mission on May 21, 1980. Photographs taken through X ray filters permitted determination of the spatial distribution of temperature and density in the loop system and variations over time. The entire growth process of the flare is detailed, including the magnetic field configurations and the enlargement of the Halpha flare ribbon separation distance. The temperature is revised to 8.8 million K during maximum soft X ray emission and 6.8 million K at the appearance of the last Halpha loops. The 1973 flare is noted to have occurred in an old, decaying spotless region, producing higher loops at lower density than the 1980 flare, which displayed ribbons imbedded in a sunspot group.

    Solar corona at high resolution (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The earth's surface is shielded from solar X rays almost completely by the atmosphere. It is, therefore, necessary to place X-ray detectors on rockets or orbiting satellites. Solar rays were detected for the first time in the late 1940's, using V-2 rockets. In 1960, the first true X-ray images of the sun were obtained with the aid of a simple pinhole camera. The spatial resolution of the X-ray images could be considerably improved by making use of reflective optics, operating at grazing incidence. Aspects of X-ray mirror developments are discussed along with the results obtained in coronal studies utilizing the new devices for the observation of solar X-ray emission. It is pointed out that the major achievements of the Skylab missions were due primarily to the unique opportunity to obtain data over an extended period of time. Attention is given to normal incidence X-ray optics, achievements possible by making use of high spatial resolution optics, and details of improved mirror design.
