A STATISTICAL SUMMARY OF SOLAR FLARE REPORTS AND OBSERVATORY PRACTICES FOR THE PERIOD 1955-1964.

Abstract

This is a summary of the ten years (1955-1964) of observations of solar flares reported by 61 observatories. The flare reports have been published predominantly in the IAU Bulletin and CRPL-F Series Part B. This report summarizes the types of information contained in the flare reports, and the frequency of some parts of these reports as functions of many parameters. The results reflect the need for closer cooperation and coordination of participating observatories in recording and reporting solar flare data.
