Two brightening events precede a GOES C1.9 flare (the flare is visible in 1330, 1400, and 2796 A). The flare originates from a single structure, which has three branches at the bottom of the image.

A series of explosive events are visible at 1330, 1400, and 2796 A between a set of coronal holes. The brightest event activates first, while the second and third events have a similar intensity. Both the second and third events cross the slit at their respective maximum intensities.

2014-11-10T23:54:16 --> 2014-11-11T00:10:29

All observed wavelengths display a two ribbon flare with a GOES class of C5.4. One ribbon (top) forms a linear structure, while the other ribbon (bottom) forms a closed loop. Following the peak intensity, the closed loop ribbon ejects material. The ejected material crosses the slit and returns as coronal rain (the return is visible only in 1330 A and 1400 A), again crossing the slit.

2014-06-22T12:56:46 --> 2014-06-22T13:25:22

A flare visible in all observed wavelengths (1330, 1400, and 2796 A) occurs in the upper left corner of the observation. GOES classifies the flare as a B7.9 flare. As the flare reaches maximum intensity one of the ribbons crosses the slit. The slit also records waves of absorption visible in the image during the flare's peak intensity. The absorption waves significantly affect emission line profiles. The line profile evolution is most noticeable in Mg II h/k lines.

2014-06-21T19:15:27 --> 2014-06-21T20:22:09

A GOES 1.0 flare visible in 1330, 1400, and 2796 A contains three primary ribbons of flux. One ribbon is stationary. However, the other two ribbons move after splitting from a common ribbon. After separating from one another, the two ribbons pivot about the end away from the break (i.e., the right ribbon rotates about its right end and the left ribbon rotates about its left end.). The fanning ribbons rotate away from one another (both rotate clockwise) after the break. Eventually, the upper fan rotates into the stationary ribbon causing both ribbons to fade.

2014-06-19T18:52:21 --> 2014-06-19T19:26:19

1330, 1400, and 2796 A all show a two ribboned flare. The shorter of the two ribbons appears to connect two filament holes, while the longer ribbon starts at the edge of one filament and continues off the image.

The movie shows two long duration peacock tails above light bridges in AR12567 and AR12565. The peacock tails are visible during the entire duration of the movie, while the left one (in AR12567) is also partially covered by the slit.

2014-06-18T21:46:49 --> 2014-06-18T22:20:17

Oscillations observed in a C shaped sunspot. The oscillations are also clearly visible in the NUV continuum.

2014-06-18T15:41:18 --> 2014-06-18T15:56:54

1330, 1400, and 2796 A all show a GOES C 1.1 flare. The flare's intensity localizes in two separate ribbon structures near two sunspots. The ribbon structures do not cross the slit, however, lower intensity flares concurrent with the flare do cross the slit. A low intensity flare precedes the main flare (by 45 minutes) between the same two sunspots. Similar to the main flare, the main ribbons of the preceding (weaker) flair do not cross the slit, but weaker parts of the flare do.

2014-06-17T13:13:57 --> 2014-06-17T13:27:17

All observed wavelengths (1330, 1400, and 2796 A) show a C1.0 GOES flare event, however, the only a portion of the flare emerges at the top of the observation. The emerging flare briefly crosses the top of the slit, but useful spectroscopic information seems unlikely. Three smaller flares follow the GOES identified flare and cross the slit.

2015-01-05T17:39:21 --> 2015-01-05T18:06:26

The observation begins with the C7.4 flare already in progress. A large C-shaped flare ribbon can be seen, with a second ribbon stretching from the center of the C to the far right of the frame.

A C1.3 flare peaking at 22:23 was reported in the NOAA/GOES flare archive. This observations shows what looks like a curving, elongated C-dahape flare ribbon brightening around the time of the flare.

2015-01-03T13:48:00 --> 2015-01-03T14:23:39

The NOAA/GOES flare database detected a C1.8 flare beginning at 13:37 and peaking at 14:13. The flare site appears to be bright for the duration of this IRIS observation, although a brightening flare event concurrent with the GOES flare is observed. This is the same flare site as the long duration C1.7 flare earlier in the same day.

A GOES C4.7 flare is visible in 1330, 1400, and 2796 A. After staring, the flare does not significantly expand along the ribbon, however, the flare increases the ribbon width. During the flare, the ribbon does not cross any sunspots. Instead, the flare weaves between three to four sunspots.

2015-01-03T10:19:39 --> 2015-01-03T11:10:49

The flare shows twisting of the magnetic field lines and two thin ribbons during the eruption. Material can be seen leaving the main flare site to the left. This region of this flare remains bright for the duration of this observation (>1hr).

This observation catches part of the filament associated with AR12473. The prominence material can be seen moving both directions. A small ejection into the filament occurs around 11:30.

IRIS captures a B5.4 flare. The flare is visible in 1330 A and 2796 A, but shows a higher intensity contrast in 1330 A. During the flare's peak, Mg II h/k, Si IV, and C II displays blue shifted emission.

2016-01-02T11:00:55 --> 2016-01-02T11:20:41

Two small explosive events occur simultaneously in AR12473. The event on the left appears to be a small, failed eruption, while the one on the right appears to be a typical jet, although the observation ends early one in the jet development. Neither brightenings were recorded as flares in the NOAA/GOES flare catalog.

Eruption is visible in 1330 A and 2796 A. Following the eruption, 2796 A displays waves of absorption. Since the event crosses the slit, the spectrum shows the post eruption absorption is in the wings of Mg II h and k.

2016-01-01T23:08:15 --> 2016-01-01T23:56:58

This observation shows what looks like downward flowing material in two flare ribbons. The ribbons slowly move farther apart as the observation progresses. While a large flare is not seen, it would appear that this ribbon spreading is associated with an M2.3 flare that occurred at this time in the same active region.
