LASCO Activity Report for
July 07, 2004 SOHO Science Daily Meeting
Planner: K. Schenk, G. Stenborg
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
SATURN enetered the C2 FOV (from the left) on 2004/07/06 (Tuesday)
at around 17:00 UT.
SATURN entered the C3 FOV (from the left) on 2004/06/29 (Tuesday).
By ~10:00 UT on 2004/07/07, it is behind the C3 occultor.

HALO aftermath
04:30 UT EN East Kind of 'jet' preceding ragged spray-like front
slightly to N in the trailing material of the Halo
event reported to start at the end of previous day.
05:30 UT S West Diffuse and wide loop front in the trailing material
of the Halo event reported to start at the end of
previous day, developing toward SSW. It is followed at
07:31 by a kind of 'jet'.
10:06 UT N West Spray-like front.
12:56 UT W Limb Bright loop front with apparently twisted inner core
and twisted trailing material, developing slightly
toward WNW. Gusty outflow follows, well into next day.
14:06 UT S West Kind of diffuse and asymmetric structure developing
along streamer followed at 17:30 UT by a small and
ragged loop front.
20:06 UT S East Diffuse bright front develops as an asymmetric 'full'
(HALO) Halo CME by 20:30 UT (C2), the part of the front above
the NW Limb being fainter than the rest. There is no
significant X-ray activity reported by the time.
Likewise EIT Fe XII images do not show any significant
activity on the disk. Between 20:00 and ~21:24 UT EIT
Fe XII running difference images show signatures of a
big CME originated in the far side of the Sun,
developing mainly toward SE. Therefore, the event could
be catalogued as a 'full' Halo CME, backsided.
2004/07/07 (Wednesday)
00:30 UT N East In the gusty outflow at NE left after the HALO event,
a ragged loop front with apparently twisted inner
structure develops. Faint extensions toward N and S,
the latter much fainter. It fades throughout C3.
01:31 UT S East Ragged loop front. It fades throughout C3.
