Kaimbridge Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 What is with that supposed A4.3 flare on 2 July @ 1300z? SpaceWeather.Live 02-Jul-2020 X‐Ray Archive Hovering over that spot, it shows as only a7.5 (“A0.75”), but it is logged under the day’s Solar flares (with no region given) as starting at 12:58 and ending at 13:02, so it doesn’t seem to be a stray spike—? And if you look at SWPC’s json text data for that time, it matches: a7.45846584...(“Long”/“0.1-0.8nm”); [ a8.81776696...(“Short”/“0.05-0.4nm”) ]; Was this just some historical data fluke (i.e., data taken from another date), or possibly a flare on the Far Side that somehow got mixed in with the Facing Side data?

Vancanneyt Sander Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Not the first time they had some wrong items in the events when we build our solar flare database and in the years we added events to it we have done many corrections so I’m not surprised 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
