Our Fermi GI program will make GBM (8 keV - 30 MeV) and LAT (10 MeV - 10 GeV) solar flare data and our IDL analysis software tools readily available to the international solar physics community. The observations will provide information on the highest energy flare-accelerated electrons and ions. The quicklook displays and spectral analysis tools are all based on RHESSI mission software.
We are creating the following online products:
• IDL tools for joint spectral and time series analysis using OSPEX in SolarSoftWare.
• Solar flare list including which GBM detector observed the flare, as well as the usual flare parameters
• Quicklook plots of GBM light curves for each orbit
• Event FITS files containing GBM and LAT solar flare data and detector response matrices for GBM triggered and untriggered events.
We have already prepared a method to identify solar flares in the GBM data stream that can reliably identify hard x-ray flares corresponding to a GOES C1-class event. The full GBM data stream will be available for download through the FERMI public data archive on an as-needed basis as we do for RHESSI.
For the gamma-ray flares we will prepare data files of the LAT data and the response matrix files that can be used with OSPEX that will include the parameterized high energy emission models.
