摘要: We define the effective connected magnetic field, Beff, a single metric of flaring potential in solar active regions. calculated Beff for 298 regions (93 X- and M-flaring, 205 nonflaring) as recorded by SOHO/MDI during 10 yr period covering much cycle 23. find that is robust criterion distinguishing from nonflaring A well-defined 12 hr conditional probability major flares depends solely on Beff. This exceeds 0.95 M-class X-class if > 1600 G 2100 G, respectively, while maximum Beff-values are near 4000 G. Active do not give < 200 750 respectively. conclude an efficient flare-forecasting can be computed timely basis readily available data.
