Notes. Column 1: event number; column 2: helicity sign; column 3: axial field firection; columns 4 and 5: reconnection flux estimated from post-eruption arcade and from flare ribbons, respectively, where ‘–’ denotes inapplicable methods; column 6: average reconnection flux. ( * )The empirical relation between soft X-ray peak flux and reconnection flux is used (Tschernitz et al. 2018; Scolini et al. 2020). ( ⋆ )Method from Kazachenko et al. (2017). ( † )Method from Cliver et al. (2019). (⋄)Method from Scolini et al. (2020).
