摘　　要：太阳耀斑是重要的空间天气事件,有关太阳耀斑参数的预报对于电离层突然骚扰(SID)影响的评估具有实用意义.本文采用GOES-8卫星上第23太阳周软X射线通量的数据,通过数值拟合的方法对X级耀斑强度的峰值以及X级耀斑的结束时间进行预测.利用这种方法对第23太阳周中的X级耀斑进行分析,最多可以提前17 min预测出X级耀斑的峰值,在预测X级耀斑结束时间时,预测的X级耀斑结束时间最多可以提前60 min左右,从预报结果来看,预报方法具有一定的有效性和实用性.Solar flares are important space weather events, and prediction for the parameters of them is important to the warning of Sudden Ionospheric Disturbance （SID）. It is well known that the revolution of solar soft X-ray flares follows some pattern especially the long duration ones. Through events analysis, it is found that the early stage of rising phase of the solar flare always indicates the peak flux. After checking the process of recent events, the pattern of flare flux developing become clear that the ftux rising rate decreases continuously until it reaches the peak. To simulate this process, a mixed fitting model was built and the basic idea represents that when the time data of X-ray is supplied to the model, relative prediction result could be derived from each group of data. When the difference between adjacent two is within point scale, the fitting parameter is then determined and stored in the model. The prediction of the flare will be made with these parameters. Evaluation of the model was done with the big flare in the 23rd solar cycle and the result is acceptable with the error less than 20% and the peak time could also be well predicted. The decreasing phase of the flarewas also investigated. Result showed that most of the flares go down following a minus e-fold pattern. Although the appearance of each flare is different, its decreasing curve could be simulated with the data after peak time. The fitting parameters would be derived through 10 data points. The result of the fitting model indicates that the ending time of flare could be well predicted. Judged from the forecast results with historic data, the prediction method has a certain validity and practicability. The dynamic fitting model was also tested with newly occurred flare. The size and peak time were well predicted, which proved that the method could be applied to prediction practically.
