Analysis of the optical spectra of solar flares. I - The flare of April 30, 1976
Abstract
A novel interactive method for the reduction of solar flare spectra is described which permits the determination of values in the continuum emission of the flare, as well as such line emission parameters as wavelength, line maximum emission intensity, halfwidth, total emissivity within the line, and line identification. The procedure has been tested on existing observational material, and results are presented for the case of the April 30, 1976 flare spectra.
