This repository contains a sample of the data used to produce the paper The September 6, 2017 X9 super flare observed from submillimeter to Mid-IR, Giménez de Castro, C.G., Raulin,J.-P., Valle Sila, J.F., Simões, P.J.A, Kudaka, A.S. & Valio, A. (2018) submitted to Space Weather.

Mid-IR data

  1. The zip file SP30T_SOL2017-09-06.zip has the 30 THz (10 um) imagestake with SP30T telescope. It is a subsample of the total with only 1 frame every 10 sconds. Frames are FITs files that can be read with any FITS reader. We used the python package astropy.io.fits. Read the header file to know what calibration procedures have been applied. The files have no World Coordinate System (WCS). Files FLIR-...WCS.fit were used to produce Figure 1, and they are the only having a WCS.

  2. The file FLIR-SOL2017-09-06T1200_Tb-recalibrated.fits has the Tb time profile at 10 um shown in Figure 2. Use getFlirFlux.py python program to get Tb and Flux. You will need also the aTrous.py procedures.

Submillimeter data

  1. Files rs1170906.1100 and rs1170906.1200 in SST_SOL20170906-09-06.zip are the Solar Submillimeter Telescope data (at 212 and 405 GHz). To read these files the python packages CRAAM Instruments can be used. The same zip file also contains beam_pos.asc: a table with the position of each receiver respect to the antenna coordinate system. Beams are: 1 to 4, at 212 GHz; 5 and 6 at 405 GHz.
