00:30 UT E Limb Diffuse and very faint front develops slowly, slightly toward ENE. It fades throughout C3 (very faint). Some gusty outflow along the day, especially on ENE. 23:30 UT S West Elongated and apparently twisted feature. Some brightenings already seen since a little bit earlier. EIt 1985 images show a prominence eruption to S of NOAA AR 10875 between around 23:12 - 23:48 UT.
00:54 UT SS East Faint jet-like front that quickly fades. 01:31 UT S West Small brightening just appearing to S of event reported to start at 23:30 UT, develops as a ragged and expanding loop front [1]. It is followed by a structured core (its inner front first seen in C2 at 02:54 UT) [2]. By 03:30 UT, a system of faint and expanding loop fronts start to ve visible above the S Pole [3]. By 06:54 UT this system of loops spans ~ 145 deg (from PA 110 - 255). Feature [1] is first seen in C3 appearing above the SW Limb at 03:18 UT. Feature [2] follows behind at 04:42 UT. Finally, Feature [3] appears above the S Pole at 05:42 UT, partly superposed in the LOS with [2]. The mean plane- of-sky speed of the different features involved is as follows (based on C3 data): Feature [1] at PA 226: 520 km/sec (no acceleration) Feature [2] at PA 225: 400 km/sec (no acceleration) Feature [3] at PA 187: 300 km/sec (no acceleration). The last measurement is not that reliable due to the faintness of its LE (and superposition with Feature [2]. GOES reported no significant X-ray activity by the time prior to the LASCO C2 event, though it recorded a B3.7 X-ray flare on NOAA AR 10876 (S17W41) between 03:28 - 05:00 UT with peak emission at 04:35 UT. EIT 195 images shows between ~ 00:24 - 01:36 UT the eruption of the rest of the filament (see entry at 22:30 UT on previous day), between AR 10876 and E05. It is visible at least as far as skirt of the South Polar Coronal Hole at ~ S60. EIT shows then, between ~ 01:13 - 06:48 UT, the slow evolution of post-CME loops to SE of AR 10876. Given the observational characteristics of the event C2 and C3 the event has therefore been catalogued as a Partial Halo Event, frontsided, associated to a filament eruption. 07:54 UT N West Faint and elongated front starts to be discernible. Last C2 image available by the time of writing: 12:06 UT
