Points Of Interest

S East Event reported to start at 21:54 UT on previous day
continues its development. Here is the corresponding
entry to that event:
- Slow development of a wide and diffuse loop-like front
first seen in C2 at 21:54 UT (on 05/01/10) above the
S East Limb, already under development after data gap
between 18:30 - 21:54 UT. Bright structure inside.
Mean plane-of-sky speed of the outermost front (LE)
based on C3 data at PA 123: ~ 304 km/sec, slightly
accelerated. As for the inner structure, its mean
plane-of-sky speed at PA 123 was about 272 km/sec,
also slightly accelerated (though lower value than
that of the outermost front). Angular span of the
event at 09:18 UT (C3): ~ 100 deg, from PA 080 - 180.
01:31 UT S West Extremely faint small fronts start to be discernible in
C2, already far from the inner edge. EIT 195 images
show the eruption of a prominence between 22:24 - 23:36
UT on SW, showing then continued outflow in emission
until about 08:00 UT.
03:54 UT N East Faint and diffuse expanding loop front that fades
throughout C3.
06:06 UT W Limb Faint loop front just appearing preceded by a another
faint and not-well-defined front at ~ 03:54 UT.
06:06 UT S East Very faint and diffuse front superposed in the LOS with
the aftermath of event reported to start at 21:54 UT
on previous day. By 07:54 UT, a faint expanding loop
front starts to be seen above the E Limb. It fades
throughout C3. Much gusty outflow to S, well into next
day.
09:30 UT NN West Couple of very faint front starts to be discernible.
They fade throughout C3. By 12:54 UT, infalling
'v-shaped' structure (the event looks like a 'pair
formation').
17:30 UT NN East Faint expanding loop front that fades throughout C3.
Another one, fainter, on NNW apparently developing
faster.
18:06 UT E Limb Faint and ragged expanding front. It also fades
throughout C3.
23:30 UT S East Faint and ragged expanding loop front, brighter to S.
It fades throughout C3.

E Limb Gusty outflow all across the eastern limb.
