Scientific paper

The properties of white-light flares are discussed on the basis of the published accounts of these events, together with the associated H-alpha flares, radio bursts, X-ray bursts, proton events, and ionospheric disturbances. In addition, spectral plates taken at Purple Mountain Observatory since 1962 have been examined. It is found that 5 percent of the spectrograms of solar flares show variable white-light emission. A minority of the white-light flares are associated with H-alpha flares of small importance classes, which may be caused by perturbations originating in the convective zone below; the majority, accompanied by high-energy events, are caused by the bombardment of energetic particles from above.
