Proton Flares of 1980-1986
Abstract
Proton flares from 1980 through May 1986 were studied. The particle events (having proton flux of 10/sq cm/s/sr with energy > or = 10 MeV) and their associated flares are published by the NOAA Space Environment Service Center in the Solar Geophysical Data. A total of 39 proton events occurred during the time interval, of which 34 associated source flares were identified. Aspects of the 34 proton flares investigated in the study and the results are listed below: Active Regions in which Proton Flares Occurred; Proton Flares and Flares Associated with Interplanetary Type II Bursts; Hard X-ray Signatures; and The Proton Flare Scenario.
