The Speed Distributions of CMEs after the Projection Correction

Li, K. J.; Gao, P. X.

Observations of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) with coronagraphs are subject to the projection effect, which results in statistical errors in many properties of CMEs, such as the speed. In this paper, using the method based on the cone model to correct the speeds of CMEs due to the projection effect, we study the speed distribution of CMEs before a…
