Implications of X-ray observations for electron acceleration and propagation in solar flares
GD Holman, MJ Aschwanden, H Aurass… - Space science …, 2011 - Springer
High-energy X-rays and γ-rays from solar flares were discovered just over fifty years ago.
Since that time, the standard for the interpretation of spatially integrated flare X-ray spectra at …

Impulsive phase flare energy transport by large-scale Alfvén waves and the electron acceleration problem
L Fletcher, HS Hudson - The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
The impulsive phase of a solar flare marks the epoch of rapid conversion of energy stored in
the preflare coronal magnetic field. Hard X-ray observations imply that a substantial fraction …

Physical processes in magnetically driven flares on the sun, stars, and young stellar objects
AO Benz, M Güdel - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2010 - annualreviews.org
The first flare on the Sun was observed exactly 150 years ago. During most of the long
history, only secondary effects have been noticed, so flares remained a riddle. Now the …

Recent advances in understanding particle acceleration processes in solar flares
We review basic theoretical concepts in particle acceleration, with particular emphasis on
processes likely to occur in regions of magnetic reconnection. Several new developments …
