We develop the impulsiveness index, a new classification system for solar flares using the SDO/EVE 304 {\AA} Sun-as-a-star light curves. Impulsiveness classifies events based on the duration and intensity of the initial high-energy…

On 23 July 2016 after 05:00\,UTC, the first 48-antenna stage of the Siberian Radioheliograph detected two flares of M7.6 and M5.5 GOES importance that occurred within half an hour in the same active region. Their multi-instrument analysis…

In solar flares, inverse Compton scattering (ICS) of photospheric photons might give rise to detectable hard X-ray photon fluxes from the corona where ambient densities are too low for significant bremsstrahlung or recombination. Gamma-ray…
