Comment Section

A good ICME, strong CME source, however, "stealth" surface signature (J. Zhang)
- A good example of "stealth" CME: bright CME, but no or very weak surface signature (in terms of no flare, dimming, filament eruption etc)
This event has a very difficult to distinguish source region, if you look very closely at S22 W38 just before 00:00 UT on the 10/05 it is possible to see a very small disturbance on the Sun, especially in 304 Angstroms. (Hess)
M. Temmer: clear on-disk signatures - movie from SDO - are visible. It is a "silent" CME, hard to catch for space weather forecasters, but not a "stealth" in sense of no solar surface signatures at all.

C. Moestl: looking at the whole October 4 SDO movie, there are also two other minor eruptions which I find very hard to distinguish from the 15 UT one (1. 7 UT, slightly west of disk center; 2. 0930 UT, south-east quadrant)
timing - evolution from SDO FoV to coronagraph - is an issue and needs to be looked at in detail
these eruptions are also visible in the SWAP data (http://proba2.oma.be/), including another minor one at 14h UT in the south-east quadrant (A. Devos)
