Bright points are observed routinely in every layer of the Sun. One type of bright point, called sequential chromospheric brightening (SCB), is coincident with flares and is thought to represent a chromospheric foot-point of a magnetic field line that extends into the corona. These field lines are energized during a CME-causing eruption leading to the brightening we observe. We extract physical measurements of chromospheric flares and SCBs using an automated feature detection suite. Correlating these results with complementary data from the corona, we identify the spatio-temporal relationship between coronal loops and SCBs. We explore a coronal origin for SCBs and put forth an explicatory model.
