The most dramatic changes in the solar corona occur during coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, during which solar material is propelled outward into the heliosphere from regions in the corona not previously participating in the solar wind expansion. These ejections often produce major solar wind disturbances, large geomagnetic storms, enhancements of ...

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1991
Abstract We summarize the observational aspects of the transient solar coronal features known as coronal mass ejections. Recognizing the importance of understanding this form of solar activity, particularly in the light of relations to flare and prominence activity, and geomagnetic effects, we consider the spectrum of models which ...

On the Coronal Mass Ejection onset and Coronal Dimming
Solar Physics, 2004A comprehensive case and statistical study of CME onsets has been conducted on the solar limb using the CDS, LASCO and EIT instruments aboard the SOHO spacecraft. This is the first dedicated campaign to establish firmly the EUV signatures of CME onsets and is based on a series of low-corona observing campaigns made in 2002. The event database consisted

Detection and Tracking of Coronal Mass Ejections
2008Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) events refer to the appearance of a new, discrete, white-light feature (with outward velocity) in a coronagraph. The huge amount of data provided by the pertinent instruments onboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and, most recently, the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) makes the human-based ...

Forces governing coronal mass ejections
Advances in Space Research, 2006Kinematics of CMEs is analyzed to get an insight into the properties of forces partaking in the eruption. It is demonstrated that the Lorentz force plays a dominant role within a distance of a few solar radii. In the distance range 1– 30 solar radii, the inferred values of the Lorentz-force acceleration aL on average decrease with the ...

Turbulence in coronal mass ejections
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1997The magnetic fields measured by the ISEE 3 spacecraft are used to study MHD turbulence within coronal mass ejections (CMEs). The spectral indices of the turbulence inside CMEs are compared with spectral indices found in solar wind undisturbed by CMEs. Irrespective of the CME velocities, the spectra within CMEs are found to differ from those determined ...

Geoeffectivity of Coronal Mass Ejections
Space Science Reviews, 2007Coronal mass ejections and post-shock streams driven by them are the most efficient drivers of strong magnetospheric activity, magnetic storms. For this reason there is considerable interest in trying to make reliable forecasts for the effects of CMEs as much in advance as possible. To succeed this requires understanding of all aspects related to CMEs,

Coronal Mass Ejections and Magnetic Helicity
2005Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the most energetic events in the solar system, expelling up to 1016 g of coronal material at speeds of several hundreds or thousands of km s−1 from the Sun. As CMEs are the primary cause of space weather disturbances, we need to understand their underlying cause(s) in order to be able to predict them. After an overview
