The April 05, 2010 CME erupted from Sun around 09:00 UT on April 03, associated with a flare from NOAA Active Region 11059 (S25 W03). The first signature as seen in ACE is of a shock front at 08:00 UT and a flux rope is observed by ACE at 11:30 UT.

- Manuela Temmer: we can provide for close to the Sun deprojected height-time, velocity-time, acceleration-time, mass-time/distance plots, as well as some movies (STEREO); have a look under 2010-Apr-03 Event

- A well-behaved CME-ICME event (Jie)
- unsolved question:
explain the magnetic field profile of the ICME; how well do predictions perform?
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.
Heliospheric Imaging
Jmaps from STEREO A and B along the CME leading edge position angle
De-projected Height Time Plots of the shock and ejecta fronts as obtained from the GCS (measured by Hess) (for GCS details, see Thernisien 2006) along with velocity and acceleration profiles determined from the Aerodynamic Drag Model.
Fitting parameters in GCS Model: Carrington Longitude: 260.785 degrees, Latitude: -26.273 degrees, Tilt Angle: 14.535 degrees, Aspect Ratio: .378943, Half Angular Width: 24.9751
