BATSE Instrument: Aboard the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, featuring eight large-area scintillation detectors providing full-sky coverage for hard X-rays and gamma rays. Energy Channels: Measures hard X-ray count rates across four standard discriminator bands (25–50, 50–100, 100–300, and above 300 keV) with a time resolution of 1.024 seconds. GOES Correlation: Provides soft X-ray background and flare class data to verify and complement the hard X-ray timing and intensity profiles captured by BATSE. Catalog Criteria: Focuses primarily on strong solar events, often cataloging flares with peak count rates exceeding 100,000 counts per second (cps) in specific energy windows. spase://SMWG/Person/Richard.A.Schwartz Author spase://SMWG/Person/Olga.Y.Uritskaya MetadataContact spase://SMWG/Repository/NASA/MSFC https://gammaray.msfc.nasa.gov/batse/sflare/solar_flare_data.html HTML spase://SMWG/Instrument/BATSE spase://SMWG/Instrument/GOES/7/Ephemeris spase://SMWG/Instrument/GOES/8/Ephemeris spase://SMWG/Instrument/GOES/9/Ephemeris spase://SMWG/Instrument/GOES/10/Ephemeris SolarFlare 1991-05-16T06:42:08 2000-05-23T21:02:57 Date (M/D/Y) Temporal TJD Temporal Trigger # Other Triggertime (s of day) Temporal Time (UT) BATSE Start Temporal Time (UT) BATSE Peak Temporal Time (UT) BATSE End Temporal Rise Time (s) Temporal Fall Time (s) Temporal Approx.
