Comments

A brightening of the O VI lines is detected from 05:03 to 05:14 UT corresponding to the time the X-ray flare occurred. When all the spectra, after the CME ejecta, are summed some [Fe XVIII] 975A emission is detected around PA=130. This may suggest either the presence of a current sheet or the hot emission from post CME loops.
