Requirements for progress in understanding solar flare energy transport: the impulsive phase

Kerr, G. S. et al. (2023) Requirements for progress in understanding solar flare energy transport: the impulsive phase. Bulletin of the American Astronomical Society, 55(3), (doi: 10.3847/25c2cfeb.701e4c96)

Abstract

Solar flares are a fundamental component of solar eruptive events. Flare emission is the first component of a SEE to impact the Earth’s ionosphere which can set the stage for the later effects of the space weather event. In this white paper we discuss the flare impulsive phase, setting out gaps in our understanding and paths towards resolving those gaps, including specific recommendations.
