Quasi-Periodic Pulsations (QPPs) in Solar Micro Flares
From polarized spectroscopic observations at RATAN-600 on January 25,
2017, we detected a strong "micro flare" with QPPs; it was unnoticed
by the global solar monitoring stations working in various ranges.
A characteristic feature of the spectrum lies in the fact that the
gradual increase of flux with wavelength was followed by an abrupt
explosive brightening in the range of 3-4 GHz tens times greater than
the brightness of the quiescent Sun. Studies of the time evolution and
comparison with EUV (extreme UV) showed that this type-B2 micro flare was
initiated by the appearance of an S-like loop. The polarized radio
emission from this micro flare observed at RATAN-600 was generated
by non-thermal electrons, whose hard X ray emission was detected
with the RHESSI space mission.
The result is unique, as the limiting parameters combined the space and
ground-based observation complexes and a rare flash event with a new
radiation mechanism was detected.
