The 3B/X3 solar flare of 27 February 1992

Active region NOAA 7070 was related to a 3B/X3 solar flare that occurred on February 27, 1992. The soft X-ray flare observations were obtained by the SXT (Soft X-ray Telescope) on board the Yohkoh satellite, and those in Hα from the Udaipur Observatory. The location of the Hα kernels and ribbons, an...
