Final analysis is reported on the Lasco CME list.
An archive of these reports is available.
Points Of Interest
2007/05/15 (Tuesday)
01:54 UT EN East Thin ragged loop front. It fades throughout C3.
06:06 UT E Limb Faint ragged front that fades very close to the inner
edge of C3.
10:34 UT E Limb Ragged loop front that also fades close to the inner
edge of C3.
16:30 UT E Limb Diffuse loop front practically no longer discernible
in C3 (see next entry).
18:53 UT E Limb Diffuse loop front develops as a very bright and wide
loop front practically all across the North-East
quadrant of the C2 FOV. There seems to be an extremely
faint and diffuse extension above the N Pole during
the early development of the event (only discernible
in C2). Twisted (bright) inner structure. Gusty outflow
follows. There is a C3 data gap between 18:36 - 21:36
UT due to EIT Shutterless Run. Therefore, the event is
first seen in C3 at 21:36 UT. WIDTH in C3 at 01:42 UT
(next day): ~ 110 deg. GOES reported multiple B-class
activity all along the afternoon till at least the end
of the day on NOAA AR 10956 (around N00E50 by
15:30 UT).
21:32 - 23:06 UT LASCO Data Gap (C2 time) due to
EIT Shutterles Run.
2007/05/16 (Wednesday)
E Limb Gusty outflow.
02:30 UT E Limb Ragged front in the trail of event reported to start
at 18:53 UT on previous day.
04:30 UT E Limb Another ragged front (brighter than the previous one).
Last C2 image available by the time of writing: 12:54 UT.
