Points Of Interest

2004/01/27

06:54 UT  N West	Very faint narrow spray-like front. It fades throughout
			C2.

07:31 UT  N Pole	Very faint narrow ragged loop front and twisted
			trailing material preceded by a small and faint ragged
			front from which it is difficult to determine the time
			of first appearance in C2 (in C3: 05:42 UT).

13:31 UT  S West	Narrow spray-like front followed by several others at
			14:54, 16:06, 16:54, and 18:54 UT slightly N of 
			streamer. They all fade close to the inner edge of C3 
			fov.

17:54 UT  S East 	Extremely faint spray-like front, slightly S of next
			event. Not discernible in C3.

20:30 UT  E Limb	Spray front preceding ragged loop front with twisted
			trailing material and followed by several very narrow
			spray-like fronts at PA coincident with that of the
			southern leg of the event starting at 04:06 UT on 
			next day.

2004/01/28

00:30 UT  S West	An initially very slow loop front followed by
			twisted inner core (flux rope-like) develops in 
			'streamer blowout'. At 12:18 UT (LE at ~15 solar radii)
			the plane-of-sky speed of the LE reaches ~ 450 km/s.

07:31 UT  S Pole	Faint loop front to S of previous event. It vanishes
			close to the inner edge of C3 fov.

	09:00 - 10:55 UT	Temporary DSN Data Gap
