Features of the development and energetics of the solar flare of November 22, 1977

On November 22, 1977, Prognoz-6 measured intensity increases of solar electromagnetic radiation in a wide energy range as well as charged-particle fluxes associated with the 2B solar flare in McMath 15031 with coordinates N28W40. The data were used to analyze several temporal and energetic features of this event: the initial phase of solar-flare development during which a slow growth in the intensity of solar X-rays was observed; a pulsed phase during which hard X-ray bursts were emitted; the emission of gamma rays, indicating the generation of high-energy protons during the flare event; and the energetics of the event.
