Ellerman bombs: fallacies, fads, usage

Ellerman bombs are short-lived brightenings of the outer wings of Hα that occur in active regions with much flux emergence. We point out fads and fallacies in the extensive Ellerman bomb literature, discuss their appearance in various spectral diagnostics, and advocate their use as indicators of fie...

Summary:Ellerman bombs are short-lived brightenings of the outer wings of Hα that occur in active regions with much flux emergence. We point out fads and fallacies in the extensive Ellerman bomb literature, discuss their appearance in various spectral diagnostics, and advocate their use as indicators of field reconfiguration in active-region topography using AIA 1700 Å images.
