Abstract
We describe a catalogue of solar flares observed by the three instruments (SOT, XRT, EIS) onboard the Hinode satellite. From the launch of the Hinode satellite in September 2006 until late 2011, about 5000 solar flares (larger than A-class in the GOES classification) occurred during the five-year period of Hinode observations, and more than half of them were captured by the Hinode telescopes. Observation information for RHESSI and Nobeyama Radioheliograph are also included in the catalogue. This catalogue is distributed to users through the Internet. It will be useful and helpful for scientists in surveying flares to be analyzed, facilitate access to Hinode data, and help advance data analysis activities among the world solar community.
Highlights
In recent years, various catalogue and event lists of observed solar flare data have been open to the public
For each solar flare that was observed by RHESSI, check the maximum energy range of hard X-rays observed by RHESSI
This page gives the locations for almost all of the flares, based on EUV data from STEREO/SECCHI/EUVI, Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)/EIT or Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)/AIA, and it is very useful for determining whether Hinode observed the flare
Summary
Various catalogue and event lists of observed solar flare data have been open to the public. These catalogue and lists have been extensively utilized by many researchers for finding data on individual flares as well as statistical research. The Hinode satellite (Kosugi et al, 2007) has been in operation for almost five years, and already many flares have occurred during the Hinode era to date, even though still prior to solar maximum. Many of these flares were observed by Hinode.
