Understanding the Origins of Problem Geomagnetic Storms Associated with “Stealth” Coronal Mass Ejections [PDF]
Geomagnetic storms are an important aspect of space weather and can result in significant impacts on space- and ground-based assets. The majority of strong storms are associated with the passage of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) in the ...

Sheath-accumulating Propagation of Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection [PDF]
Fast interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) are the drivers of strong space weather storms such as solar energetic particle events and geomagnetic storms.

Deriving the radial distances of wide coronal mass ejections from elongation measurements in the heliosphere - Application to CME-CME interaction [PDF]
We present general considerations regarding the derivation of the radial distances of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from elongation angle measurements such as those provided by SECCHI and SMEI, focusing on measurements in the Heliospheric Imager 2 (HI-2)

Redefining the boundaries of interplanetary coronal mass ejections from observations at the ecliptic plane [PDF]
On 2015 January 6-7, an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) was observed at L1. This event, which can be associated with a weak and slow coronal mass ejection, allows us to discuss on the differences between the boundaries of the magnetic cloud ...

Active Longitude and Coronal Mass Ejection Occurrences [PDF]
The spatial inhomogeneity of the distribution of coronal mass ejection (CME) occurrences in the solar atmosphere could provide a tool to estimate the longitudinal position of the most probable CME-capable active regions in the Sun.

CHROMOSPHERE TO 1 au SIMULATION OF THE 2011 MARCH 7th EVENT: A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF CORONAL MASS EJECTION PROPAGATION [PDF]
We perform and analyze the results of a global magnetohydrodynamic simulation of the fast coronal mass ejection (CME) that occurred on 2011 March 7. The simulation is made using the newly developed Alfvén Wave Solar Model (AWSoM), which describes the ...

Simulation study on the propagation process of coronal mass ejection
Coronal mass ejection (CME) is a kind of space weather phenomenon caused by the intense activity of the sun. Important issues of concern to the space weather community include understanding the propagation and evolution of a particular CME in the corona ...

RELATIONSHIP OF EUV IRRADIANCE CORONAL DIMMING SLOPE AND DEPTH TO CORONAL MASS EJECTION SPEED AND MASS [PDF]
Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) coronal dimmings are often observed in response to solar eruptive events. These phenomena can be generated via several different physical processes.

Proton beam velocity distributions in an interplanetary coronal mass ejection [PDF]
The plasma and magnetic-field instruments on the Helios 2 spacecraft, which was on 3 April 1979 located at 0.68 AU, detected an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) that revealed itself by the typical signature of magnetic field rotation.
