Multi-point Shock and Flux Rope Analysis of Multiple Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections around 2010 August 1 in the Inner Heliosphere
Liu, Y.; Luhmann, J. G.; Webb, D. F. +20 more
We present multi-point in situ observations of a complex sequence of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) which may serve as a benchmark event for numerical and empirical space weather prediction models. On 2010 August 1, instruments on various space missions, Solar Dynamics Observatory/Solar and Heliospheric Observatory/Solar-TErrestrial-RElations-Obser…
A Global Two-temperature Corona and Inner Heliosphere Model: A Comprehensive Validation Study
Fedorov, A.; Llebaria, A.; Lamy, P. L. +9 more
The recent solar minimum with very low activity provides us a unique opportunity for validating solar wind models. During CR2077 (2008 November 20 through December 17), the number of sunspots was near the absolute minimum of solar cycle 23. For this solar rotation, we perform a multi-spacecraft validation study for the recently developed three-dim…
Morphological Evolution of a Three-dimensional Coronal Mass Ejection Cloud Reconstructed from Three Viewpoints
Feng, L.; Inhester, B.; Wei, Y. +3 more
The propagation properties of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are crucial to predict its geomagnetic effect. A newly developed three-dimensional (3D) mask fitting reconstruction method using coronagraph images from three viewpoints has been described and applied to the CME ejected on 2010 August 7. The CME's 3D localization, real shape, and morpholo…
