Catalogue of Solar Radio Bursts Detected by the LOFAR LV614 Station at the Irbene Observatory during Solar Cycle 25
Abstract
A catalogue (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20157853) of solar radio bursts detected with the LV614 LOFAR station at the Irbene Observatory, Latvia, in the stand-alone mode from June 2022 to August 2025 in the 29-60 MHz frequency range is presented. Observations were conducted with the weekly cadence, one-second time resolution, and 0.195 MHz spectral resolution. The cumulative duration of the observation was 1125.2 h. For all analysed observations, bandpass calibration was applied using Cassiopeia A as a reference source. In total, the catalogue includes 335 solar radio bursts. Radio bursts of all five main types, I-V, were detected. Specifically, the catalogue contains parameters of 23, 8, 293, 6, and 5 bursts of Type I, II, III, IV, and V, respectively. The detected burst peak flux ranges from 0.3 SFU to 234 SFU. The catalogue provides information about the peak flux and frequency, and the estimated height of the source above the solar surface. For Type II and III bursts, we also give the estimations of the frequency drifts, with mean values $ 0.043 ~\mathrm{MHz\,s^{-1}}$ and $4.383 ~\mathrm{MHz\,s^{-1}}$, respectively. We also estimated the fit $df/dt = Af^a$, with the best fit parameters $A=0.78$ and $a=0.43$. The numbers of Type I and III events are found to decrease with the peak flux, with the power law indices about $-0.9$ and $-1.25$, respectively. For Type III, we estimated electron beam speed ranging from 0.005 to 0.477 of the speed of light for the fundamental frequency, and 0.008 to 0.794 of the speed of light for its second harmonic.
