Investigating the Efficacy of Topologically Derived Time-Series for
Flare Forecasting. I. Dataset Preparation
The accurate forecasting of solar flares is considered a key goal within the solar physics and space weather communities. There is significant potential for flare prediction to be improved by incorporating topological fluxes of magnetogram datasets, without the need to invoke three-dimensional magnetic field extrapolations. Topological quantities such as magnetic …
