Variations of flare energy release behaviour and magnetic loop characteristics versus absolute stellar parameters

In this paper, we examine how stellar flare activity varies with evolution stage, rotation period, and spectral type. To do this, we examine the distributions of the flare equivalent duration on a logarithmic scale, which we consider as an indicator of the maximum energy level that a star can reach in white-light flares. We conduct these analyses using two distinct statistical models of data obtained from white-light flare patrols of 33 stars. These models are the one-phase exponential association (OPEA) and cumulative flare frequency models. The results show that the value of the OPEA model parameter Plateau has a linear relationship with the stellar B - V colour index and the rotation period. In addition, it is shown that flare time-scales, and therefore the maximum magnetic loop height that stars can have, vary according to the evolutionary stage of the star. Finally, it is concluded that the cumulative flare frequency parameters of the stars are not as effective as the OPEA parameters at exhibiting
