The following lists show SUMER flare watch studies that were carried out in April and May 2002 as part of SOHO campaign #6857 ("JOP104: Doppler Shifts in X-Ray Jets"). These studies either observe Fe XIX 1118.073 or 1184.473/2 (~6 000 000 K) or Fe XXI 1354.062 (~10 000 000 K), among other lines. All studies use SUMER slit 1 (4"x300"). Most studies transmit three spectral windows after an exposure time of 49.5 s. Most studies place the flare line on the KBr part of the detector. (Fe XIX values from bare detector are multiplied with an appropriate factor to be comparable with the rest of the values.)
If you click on the start date, you will see a daily overview of the SUMER observations. Shown is the temporal development of the radiance, averaged across the whole slit and summed over a spectral range 1 Å around the flare line. Thus, flare events in the SUMER field of view become visible; they can be quantified and compared to other instruments' observations. - Results that have been made public (currently only the X flare of 21 Apr 2002) and other results can be reached by clicking on the start time of the study.
