Description
A large part of the energy of solar flares goes into
heating, radiation, and mass
motion in the lower solar atmosphere. By combining IRIS data
with different
instruments, such as RHESSI, SDO, and ground-based
telescopes, we can infer the
properties from the photosphere to the corona during flares.
In this talk, I will
give an introduction to flare observations with IRIS. IRIS
data can for example be
used to constrain velocities of filament eruptions,
continuum emission during flares,
chromospheric evaporation, and state-of-the-art models of
solar flares.
