Subject: Halo CME on 2000/06/10
Status: O
LASCO and EIT observed a full halo CME on 2000/06/10. The event was first
visible in C2 at 17:08 UT as a bright front over the NW limb, and later
extended over all position angles. The plane-of-sky speed was 1000 km/s at
PA 290 (NW limb).
The CME was probably associated with a M5.2 flare in AR 9026 (N22 W37)
that was observed by EIT observed at 16:48 UT.
Images and movies of this event will be available soon at the LASCO ftp
server:
ftp://ares.nrl.navy.mil/data2/ftp/pub/lasco/halo/20000610.
Best wishes,
Simon Plunkett.
