AbstractA theoretical interpretation is offered for the power-law dependence of the flare occurrence rate in red flare dwarfs. Flares on red dwarfs are regarded as being physically akin to solar flares, with the energy source being the magnetic field. A power law flare energy relation then emerges naturally. Model estimates of the corresponding spectral index β fit the observed values in most flare stars. Within the bounds of the interpretation offered the energy dependence of a flare event is determined by the character of the turbulence in the convection zone. The observed parameters of the dependence can be used to diagnose the character of the turbulence in the convection zones of flare stars.-
