A Statistical Study of Flares as Self-Organized Critical Phenomena
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The statistical property of flares is examined in terms of the number of flares versus its magnitude, i. e. the “Importance” reported in the IAU Quarterly Bulletin of Solar Activity for 1961–1983. It is shown that the number of flare and its magnitude follow a power law relationship indicative of the self-organized critical phenomenon, regardless of the phase of the solar cycle.
