• Downflow Motions Associated with Impulsive Nonthermal Emissions Observed in the 2002 July 23 Solar Flare (2004, background): “It showed a lot of spectacular features, which have been reported in a number of papers (e.g., Lin et al. 2003), and is famous as the first event in whichg-ray images were successfully obtained (Hurford et al. 2003) with theR uven Fig.”
• Recent Advances in Understanding Particle Acceleration Processes in Solar Flares (2011, background): “…by Emslie et al. (2004), this may be the explanation for the diff rent locations of hard X-ray and gamma-ray sources in flares (see Section 2.3 and Hurford et al. 2003, 2006); efficient proton acceleration requires relatively long trapping times and so a larger magnetic structure, whereas…”
