Note on tracking Sun-Earth connection event Observer: SD ICME 1.1.Catalog # Identified in ICME catalogs: Richardson & Cane List RC Catalog Disturbance start time: 2013/03/20 17:00 UT Ejecta start time: 2013/03/20 18:00 UT Ejecta end time: 2013/03/20 22:00 UT dv= 110 km/s, v = 520 km/s, vmax = 640 km/s MC index: 9 Dst: -39 Suggested source CME: V_transit: - km/s 1.2.Comments Overall ICME quality index: ICME signatures: Increase in velocity rotation of Bz, but the rotation is not smooth Based on 640 km/s -> search window 64.9306 hrs or 2.70544 days -> 2013/03/18 00:04:09.984 2. CME 2.1. A. Candidate A A.1. LASCO: #CME 2013/03/17 15:36 UT, partial halo (from CDAW) angle: 157, vel: 399 km/s SEEDS C2 vel: 122 km/s A.2. STEREO: Seen as a major CME in both COR2-A and COR2-B. Propagating towards north A.3. AIA & GOES: Long filament eruption from quite sun region (~N40W60) around ~13:30 UT. It was not associated with any major flares. A.4. Comments: Could be the source of disturbance on 2013/03/20. Though the eruption occurred near the limb and was moving towards the north (mostly), considering the size of filament it is possible that a small portion or disturbance could reach the Earth. 3. Other Comments Very short event (5 hrs). The initial propagation speed of the associated CME was very small. 4. Summary SW index: 3 Source index: 1 Overall index: 3 Filament: Yes WDA: No
