Simulated Flares:
The ISSI team led by Broomhall performed a 'Hare and Hounds' exercise to determine how good various methods are at detecting QPPs in flares. The hare (Broomhall) has produced simulated flares. All of the data sets contain a primary flare (of various lengths, amplitudes and shapes), red and white noise. Then various additional ‘qpp-like’ signals have been added to some of the flares as well. Each flare has been assigned a random number which is in the filename. The files are in fits format with a time column and a flux column. All time series are 300 data points in length (arbitrary units). These flares will also be used in this project. The flares can be found following the link below:
