RHESSI Flare Image Archive

ResourceID
spase://NASA/Catalog/NASA/RHESSI/Flare_Image_Archive

Description

The RHESSI Image Archive provides science-ready images for all RHESSI flares that meet time and flux thresholds. Images and related products were generated for >75,000 RHESSI flares. For each flare that meets the threshold, high quality images have been generated for an optimized grid of times and energies customized for that flare, using six of the RHESSI image reconstruction algorithms.

Parameter #1
Name
Time link
Description

The link showing the date/time of the flare leads to a single-flare web page with figures and links to all products created for that flare. To highlight the larger flares, the peak rate may be listed to the right of the time in orange (for peak rate > 1,000 c/s) or magenta (for peak rate > 10,000 c/s)

Parameter #2
Name
Time/energy Bins
Description

The number of time/energy bins, e.g. 9tx2e means there are images in nine time bins and two energy bins for this flare.

Panels
Description

The 'Panels' link shows the 'scaled' panel display of all images (for each image in one energy band, the image intensity is scaled to the maximum value of ALL the images in that energy band).

Parameter #7
Name
Image Movies by energy bands
Description

The energy bands (3-6, 6-12, 12-25, 25-50, 50-100, and 100-300 keV) link to the image movies in that band for the selected algorithm. The energy columns show a '-' when that energy band could not be imaged, so this display also provides a quick view of which flares extend to higher energies.
