Abstract

AbstractFlare optical continuum with duration above one minute is emitted by a gas condensation with T ≈ 104 K, which may form in a gas-dynamic process. The light carve slope implies that this flare consists of several elementary events. The features of the initial C IV line burst during one elementary event are determined by numerical simulation. The comparison of theoretical intensity and duration of the C IV burst with the observations of the EV Lac flare on February 6, 1986 shows that the observed elementary event in the C IV line is consistent with the formation of a radiative shock wave with an explosive evaporation of the chromosphere. The possibility of the appearance of C IV doublet emission, accompanying the entire process, is also discussed.
