"Rapidly moving transient features have been detected in magnetic and Doppler images of super-active region NOAA 10486 during the X17/4B flare of 28 October 2003 and the X10/2B flare of 29 October 2003. Both these flares were extremely energetic white-light events," scientists in Udaipur, India report.
"The transient features appeared during impulsive phases of the flares and moved with speeds ranging from 30 to 50 km s(-1). These features were located near the previously reported compact acoustic (Donea and Lindsey, Astrophys. J. 630, 1168, 2005) and seismic sources (Zharkova and Zharkov, Astrophys. J. 664, 573, 2007)," wrote R.A. Maurya and colleagues.
