The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Nanoflare Heating of the Corona Revisited (2004, methodology): “Data from the Yohkoh SXT, SOHO, and TRACE have been used to infer the scaling of small-scale brightenings in the quiet-Sun and active regions, with a power-law slope both steeper and shallower than 2 being obtained (e.g., Aschwanden & Parnell 2002).”
Energy partition in two solar flare/CME events (2004, background): “factor of unity (f =1 ). Aschwanden and Parnell [2002] have suggested, based on their fractal analysis of flare geometry, that the relation Vap = A 1.3±0.1 may be a better”
RHESSI Microflare Statistics. II. X-Ray Imaging, Spectroscopy, and Energy Distributions (2007, methodology): “Aschwanden & Parnell (2002) investigated the effect of instrumental bias on the different indices from SOHO EIT, TRACE, and Yohkoh SXT data.”
An Ab Initio Approach to the Solar Coronal Heating Problem (2004, background): “…appeared to be the most promising candidate, but it now seems that the energy dissipated in the observed flare distribution, extrapolated to a cutoff at nanoflare energies, is too small (Aschwanden et al. 2000c; Parnell & Jupp 2000; Aschwanden & Parnell 2002; Aschwanden & Charbonneau 2002).”
25 Years of Self-Organized Criticality: Solar and Astrophysics (2014, background): “11; Aschwanden and Parnell 2002).”
