Hydrodynamics of an X-Ray Flare on Proxima Centauri
Abstract
We apply the Palermo-Harvard hydrodynamic numerical code to compute the evolution of temperature, density, pressure and velocity in a semicircular symmetric rigid loop to reproduce the Einstein IPC observations of the 20 August 1980 flare on Proxima Centauri.
