Ultraviolet events observed in active regions. II. An interpretation of flaring arches and associated small flares
We analyze Hα, UV, and X-ray emissions in and around the spectacular arch system seen in the corona on 1980 March 27 during the Solar Maximum Mission. The flaring of the arch plasma is studied, and its dependence on triggering mechanisms related to the observed small limb flare in the arch foot-poin...
