چکیده

The sun is pretty much a big nuclear reactor. A solar storm is when wisps of that material go outside of the sun that is highly charged with electromagnetic energy so it screws up our electronics. When the earth’s magnetic poles switch there will be a period of time where the earth’s magnetic field doesn't protect us from those charged particles and all of our electronic technology will be fried. Bright flash of plasma in the Sun’s atmosphere, capable of affecting

کاربرد الگوریتم ژنتیک و ماشین بردار پشتیبان در جستجوی پارامترهای نانوشراره‌های تاج خورشید

  Nanoflares are the small impulsive sudden energy releases, due to the explosion of solar background. Thus, determination of their energies and distributions is important . Recent observations and simulation models have shown that the frequency of their energies follows power-law. According to Parker hypothesis, if these exponents are greater than critical value 2, the contributions of nanofla...

Scaling Laws of Solar and Stellar Flares

In this study we compile for the first time comprehensive data sets of solar and stellar flare parameters, including flare peak temperatures Tp, flare peak volume emission measures EMp, and flare durations τf from both solar and stellar data, as well as flare length scales L from solar data. Key results are that both the solar and stellar data are consistent with a common scaling law of EMp ∝ T...

Statistical Models for Solar Flare Interval Distribution in Individual Active Regions

This article discusses statistical models for solar flare interval distribution in individual active regions. We analyzed solar flare data in 55 active regions that are listed in the Geosynchronous Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) soft X-ray flare catalog for the years from 1981 to 2005. We discuss some problems with a conventional procedure to derive probability density functions fro...

Solar Latitudinal Distribution of Solar Flares around the Sun and Their Association with Forbush Decreases during the Period of 1986 to 2003

Solar flare events of high importance were utilised to study solar latitudinal frequency distribution of the solar flares in northern and southern hemisphere for the solar cycle 22 to recent solar cycle 23. A statistical analysis was performed to obtain their relationship with sudden storm commencement (SSCs) and Forbush decrease events (Fd) of cosmic ray intensity. An 11-year cyclic variation ...

A Rate-independent Test for Solar Flare Sympathy

Abstract. Solar flare sympathy is the triggering of a flare in one active region by a flare in another. Statistical tests for flare sympathy have returned varying results. However, existing tests have relied on flaring rates in active regions being constant in time, or else have attempted to model the rate variation, which is a difficult task. A simple test is described which is independent of ...
