The coronal explosions, discovered by De Jager and Boelee (1984), and interpreted by them as manifestations of plasma streaming out of the flare kernels, can also be interpreted as signatures of current loop coalescence in the flaring region. ## i. Characteristics of coronal Explosions.
Solar flare occurrence follows a power-law distribution against total flare energy. W: dN dW with an index e ~ 1.8 as determined by several studies. This implies (a) that microflares must have a different, steeper distribution if they are energetically significant, and (b) there must be a high-energ
