VizieR Online Data Catalog: Global energetics of solar flares. I. (Aschwanden+, 2014)
Abstract
The data set we are analyzing for this project on the global energetics of flares includes all M- and X-class flares observed with the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) during the first 3.5yr of the mission (2010 June 1 to 2014 January 31), which amounts to 399 flare events. Magnetic energies are determined for events that have a heliographic longitude of <~45° (177 events), of which 5 events contained incomplete or corrupted Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) data, so that we are left with 172 events suitable for magnetic data analysis.
The analyzed SDO data set includes EUV images observed with the AIA, as well as magnetograms from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI). The SDO started observations on 2010 March 29 and has produced essentially continuous data of the full Sun since then. (1 data file).- Publication:
