Comment Section
- A fair ICME event, but strong solar source
- X1 flare, fast CME, originated from the eastern hemisphere (~N18E42)
- Solar wind plasma data is corrupted.
Image Data
In-Situ Data
A combination of SWEPAM and MAG data from the ACE Satellite:
The blue lines are an approximation of the CME cloud and the red line denotes the shock.
GOES X-RAY FLUX
The GOES X-ray Flux of the flare associated with the event. The vertical line approximately denotes the flare peak time.
