Flare characteristics: Properties of Eruptive and Non-eruptive events and their associations
Abstract
We report studies of a sample of 64 solar flares - GOES class A to X. Events are classed as eruptive or non-eruptive based on whether or not accompanying CMEs were observed in SOHO LASCO or EIT data. Associations between event parameters; duratuion, intensity, temperature and emission measure and presence or absence of a related CME are discussed. Intensity and duration are considered for a sample of stellar flares and the relationship with solar flares is examined. For a subset of the solar flare sample, the significance of the hard X-ray spectral slope and the association with coronal waves is assessed.
