Abstract
The following conclusions support those drawn from statistical studies done by other authors:
-
1.
The mean energy per flare increases with increasing intrinsic quiescent luminosity of the parent star.
-
2.
Brighter flare stars have more energetic but less frequent flares.
-
3.
The rise times become more rapid as the quiescent energy of the parent star decreases.
-
4.
Most of the flare light curves are either combinations of spike and slow flares or successive overlapping flares, supporting the view that energy can be added at various times during the development and decay of a flare event.
-
5.
Flares with greater energy release occasionally last longer.
