A catalogue of decimetric solar flare radio emission

Decimetric radio emission is frequently observed during solar flares. This catalogue exhibits a representative selection of typical bursts observed with the ETH high resolution digital spectrometer in the years 1979-1983. The data set is confined to the spectral range of 300-1000 MHz and to a type of events known to generally occur during the impulsive phase of flares (thus excluding the well-known fine structures of post-flare, decimetric type IV bursts). Most events can be grouped into four major classes, which however show considerable variety. The samples of this catalogue have been selected to display the observed range of multiformity by a commensurate number of typical events
