We study an EUV confined ejection observed on 09 May 2012 in active region (AR) NOAA 11476. For the analysis we use observations in multiple wavelengths (EUV, X-rays, H$\alpha$, and magnetograms) from a variety of ground-based and space…

How eruption can recur from a confined magnetic structure is discussed based on the {\it Solar Dynamics Observatory} (SDO) observations of the NOAA active region 11444, which produced three eruptions within 1.5 hours on March 27, 2012. The…

We establish the largest eruptive/confined flare database to date and analyze 322 flares of \emph{GOES} class M1.0 and larger that occurred during 2010$-$2019, i.e., almost spanning the entire solar cycle 24. We find that the total unsigned…
