LASCO Activity Report for
June 20, 2002 SOHO Science Daily Meeting
Planner: K. Schenk, G. Lawrence
Event times are first frame seen in C2 camera unless otherwise noted.
These are preliminary observations for the daily SOHO science discussions.
Final analysis is reported on the Lasco CME list.
An archive of these reports is available.
Points Of Interest
Additional stray light in C3 images. Reason presently unknown.
Note that the data processing for C3 exaggerates the effect
of this stray light - the actual counts in the raw images are
higher, but not extraordinarily so

00:54 UT S Pole Faint spray-like front, quite wide
03:54 UT N East Fairly narrow ragged front along streamer,
quite fast and bright. Cavity follows
04:30 UT N East Slow moderately bright loop front,
to N of previous event
08:06 UT S Pole Narrow front with cavity, quite
fast and bright
10:54 UT S West Fairly narrow well-defined loop front,
fades through C2
15:06 UT N East Wide multiple-loop front system moves slowly
along streamer and removes much of it.
Cavity and small core-like region follow,
then much trailing material. Streamer in SE
disrupted
