We present an overview of solar flares and associated phenomena, drawing upon a wide
range of observational data primarily from the RHESSI era. Following an introductory …

This article broadly reviews our knowledge of solar flares. There is a particular focus on their
global properties, as opposed to the microphysics such as that needed for magnetic …

We developed a solar flare prediction model using a deep neural network (DNN) named
Deep Flare Net (DeFN). This model can calculate the probability of flares occurring in the …

Solar flares and coronal mass ejections, the most catastrophic eruptions in our solar system,
have been known to affect terrestrial environments and infrastructure. However, because …

We present observations of eruptive events in an active region adjacent to an on-disk
coronal hole on 2012 June 30, primarily using data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory …

The recent realization that Sweet-Parker current sheets are violently unstable to the
secondary tearing (plasmoid) instability implies that such current sheets cannot occur in real …

Evaporation of chromospheric plasma by particle beams has been a standard feature of
models of solar flares for many decades, supported both by observations of strong hard X …

We investigate the occurrence of slipping magnetic reconnection, chromospheric
evaporation, and coronal loop dynamics in the 2014 September 10 X-class flare. Slipping …

Since the first reports of oscillations in prominences in the 1930s, there have been major
theoretical and observational developments to understand the nature of these oscillatory …

Heliophysics is a fast-developing scientific discipline that integrates studies of the Sun's
variability, the surrounding heliosphere, and the environment and climate of planets. The …
