Hydrodynamic modeling of an X-ray flare on Proxima Centauri observed by the Einstein telescope

Hydrodynamic numerical calculations of a flare which occurred on Proxima Centauri and was observed by the Einstein satellite on August 20, 1980 at 12:50 UT are presented. The highlights of the hydrodynamic code are reviewed, and the physical and geometrical parameters necessary for the calculations...

description Hydrodynamic numerical calculations of a flare which occurred on Proxima Centauri and was observed by the Einstein satellite on August 20, 1980 at 12:50 UT are presented. The highlights of the hydrodynamic code are reviewed, and the physical and geometrical parameters necessary for the calculations are derived and compared with observations. The results are consistent with the stellar flare being caused by the rapid dissipation of 5.9 x 10 to the 31st ergs, within a magnetic loop structure whose semilength is 7 x 10 to the 9th cm and cross-sectional radius is 7.3 x 10 to the 8th cm. The results provide evidence that flares on late-type stars can be described by a hydrodynamic model with a relatively simple geometry, similar to solar compact flares. 39 references.
