LASCO Activity Report for
March 10, 2004 SOHO Science Daily Meeting

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

2004/03/09

00:06 UT  N West	Faint narrow ragged front. It fades throughout C2.

00:54 UT  S West	Faint and diffuse elongated front preceding several 
			faint and diffuse 'half' loop fronts starting at 
			~ 04:06 UT developing toward S. Signatures compatible
			with the above description in EIT Fe XII running
			difference images, coming out from behind the SW limb.

01:54 UT  S East	Bright ragged loop front. It fades throughout C3. 
			Gusty outflow follows.

01:54 UT  W Limb 	Jet-like front followed at 03:54 UT by another one. At
			06:30 UT follows an initially small ragged front that
			develops as a fairly faint loop front (barely visible 
			in C3).

10:54 UT  W Limb	Narrow ragged front.

12:06 UT  S West	Faint narrow ragged front. It fades throughout C2.

17:30 UT  S East	Bright ragged loop front and cavity. Trailing part not
			discernible due to event reported to start at 22:30 UT.
			Starting at ~ 16:24 UT EIT Fe XII running difference
			images show CME coming out from just behind the SE limb.
			
	20:00 - 21:30 UT	Data Gap (ICAL01: Intercalibration EIT/CDS)

21:30 UT  N East	Bright loop front, cavity, and twisted trailing
			material. Typical flux-rope event. Starting at 
			~ 21:24 UT (after data gap) EIT Fe XII running 
			difference images show CME coming out from behind the 
			NE limb.

22:30 UT  S East	Bright loop front evolving almost in parallel with
			previous event. C3 images show the event to be slightly
			slower than the previous one. Difficult to give accurate
			time of first appearance due to event reported to start
			at 17:30 UT. No signatures in EIT Fe XII running
			difference images.

22:30 UT  N West	Slow development of a narrow system of loops develops 
			as a twisted structure into next day.

2004/03/10

05:54 UT  W Limb	Ragged front. Infalling material starting at ~ 04:35
			solar radii (08:54 UT).

09:06 UT  S East	Likely streamer blowout, preceded by the slow 
			development of a loops' system. Starting at around 
			09:00 UT EIT Fe XII running difference images show 
			CME coming out from just behind the SE limb.

	14:25 - 19:05 UT	Temporary DSN Data Gap
