Online Catalog of Activity Events of Solar Cycle 24 Related to Active Regions

We present a statistical study on the relationship of solar dynamic events (solar flares and coronal mass ejections) with active regions during Solar Cycle 24 (December 2008–December 2019). Combining data from NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center and observations of Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph (LASCO) onboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) spacecraft, we found that more than a half of the coronal mass ejections were generated inside active regions. Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) soft X-ray flare listing data completed our study showing that almost 83% of Solar Cycle 24 flares are connected with active regions. Finally, we summarize the details for the related phenomena into an online catalog based on a list of all 1533 active regions that produced at least one flare and/or coronal mass ejection during Solar Cycle 24 and explore their properties like flare class, coronal mass ejection speed, and angular width paying special attention to the most powerful and threatful to Earth solar events.
