LASCO Activity Report for
April 28, 2005 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
- SOHO is in telemetry Submode 5 (since 2005/03/11 @ 15:00 UT).
- EIT 195 CME watch at half-res (512x512).
- Venus entered the C3 FOV from the right on 2005/02/26
(by the end of the day). Still visible.

00:50 UT S West Expanding and ragged loop front superposed in the LOS
with event reported to start at 20:26 UT on previous
day. Some expanding ragged fronts follow. Difficult to
disentangle the different features that almost
continuously show up.
01:50 UT SS West Faint expanding loop front partly superposed with
event reported to start at 00:50 UT on SW. The event
at 00:50 UT develops faster.
05:50 UT S East Wide and bright ragged loop front. EIT 195 images
show a filament-based eruption from around W edge
of NOAA AR 10756 between 05:00 - 07:13 UT.
08:50 UT W Limb Faint ragged front. Difficult to disentangle it from
other features under development by the time.
12:26 UT ES East Extremely faint and diffuse front, barely discernible.
EIT 195 images show eruption from W edge of NOAA AR
10756 between 11:36 - 13:25 UT.
13:27 UT NN East Faint spray-like front that fades throughout C2.
16:04 UT ES East Bright and slightly asymmetric ragged front preceded
by a diffuse an elongated brightening. It fades
throughout C3.
23:06 UT WS West Faint and diffuse (small) loop front that fades
throughout C2.
2005/04/28 (Thursday)
00:06 UT S East System of expanding loop fronts. Inner material
apparently pushing the outer fronts. EIT 195 running
difference images show by the time a tenuous signature
of a CME above the SE limb.
02:26 UT S West Bright and ragged loop front with structured interior.
The event is preceded by a very faint front on SSW that
is first inferred at around 23:50 UT on previous day.
Time of the last C2 image under analysis: 12:06 UT.
