Objectives
- Provide textbook-style standard CME-ICME chain events from the Sun to the Earth based on the state-of-the-art observations and successful theoretical analysis and numerical simulation: happy stories
- Examine controversial Earth-Affecting CME/ICME pairs during the STEREO era (from 2007): surprising stories
- To analyse the complications that arise when linking CMEs to ICMEs
- To obtain new insights that could be applied when forecasting ICME arrivals at the Earth
- Integrate theory, simulations and observations in order to get a complete view of the chain of events from the Sun to the Earth
Scientific Questions, Technique Approach/Methodology
What are the common issues when linking ICMEs to CMEs?
- Multiple events
- Stealth CMEs
- CME deflection
- etc.
Calculating arrival times
- Projected vs 3D speeds
- Propagation models (DBM, ENLIL, etc.)
- Error margins
When/why will a full halo CME not arrive to the Earth?
When/why will a narrow CME (as seen from L1) arrive to the Earth?
What solar parameters can we use to provide an estimation of geoeffectivity?
More interesting topics:
- Forbush decreases (Mateja, Dragan, Darije)
- Sympathetic flares (Nariaki)
- SEPs (Bernd?)
- Prominence material in ICMEs, signatures in compositional data (Luciano)
- Determination of S/C path through the ICME, central or flank crossings
- Use of remote data to infer Bz: magnetograms, extrapolations, flux rope orientation
- False alarms: CMEs that did not arrive to the Earth when they were expected to, and viceversa.

Selected campaign events
- Textbook example: 12 July 2012
- Problematic event: 5 October 2012 (stealth CME, ICME trailed by a HSS)
- Backup problematic event: June 7 2013: the MC is too weak
Future Plan

- Compare and integrate simulations results with observations
- Start/continue the work related to the scientific questions
