Coronal mass ejections and their sheath regions in interplanetary space
E Kilpua, HEJ Koskinen, TI Pulkkinen - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2017 - Springer
Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) are large-scale heliospheric transients that
originate from the Sun. When an ICME is sufficiently faster than the preceding solar wind, a …

Earth-affecting solar transients: a review of progresses in solar cycle 24
This review article summarizes the advancement in the studies of Earth-affecting solar
transients in the last decade that encompasses most of solar cycle 24. It is a part of the effort …

Modeling of flux rope coronal mass ejections
AFR Thernisien, RA Howard… - The Astrophysical …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a forward-modeling technique for flux rope-like CMEs using an empirically
defined model of a flux rope, the graduated cylindrical shell (GCS). To compare it with white …

CME interactions with coronal holes and their interplanetary consequences
N Gopalswamy, P Mäkelä, H Xie… - Journal of …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
A significant number of interplanetary shocks (∼ 17%) during cycle 23 were not followed by
drivers. The number of such “driverless” shocks steadily increased with the solar cycle with …

Sun-to-Earth MHD simulation of the 2000 July 14 “Bastille Day” eruption
Solar eruptions are the main driver of space-weather disturbances at Earth. Extreme events
are of particular interest, not only because of the scientific challenges they pose, but also …

History and development of coronal mass ejections as a key player in solar terrestrial relationship
N Gopalswamy - Geoscience Letters, 2016 - Springer
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are relatively a recently discovered phenomenon—in 1971,
some 15 years into the Space Era. It took another two decades to realize that CMEs are the …

Quantitative analysis of CME deflections in the corona
In this paper, ten CME events viewed by the STEREO twin spacecraft are analyzed to study
the deflections of CMEs during their propagation in the corona. Based on the three …

We report on the radio-emission characteristics of 222 interplanetary (IP) shocks detected by
spacecraft at Sun–Earth L1 during solar cycle 23 (1996 to 2006, inclusive). A surprisingly …

CME–HSS interaction and characteristics tracked from Sun to Earth
In a thorough study, we investigate the origin of a remarkable plasma and magnetic field
configuration observed in situ on June 22, 2011, near L1, which appears to be a magnetic …
