The Space Weather Week Monique Pick LESIA, Observatoire de Paris 13-17 November 2006
Interest of radio observations for CMEs • More particularly forcast those reaching the Earth • Proxies (Halo) • Future plans • Web site (http://secchirh.obspm.fr) • More particularly forcast those reaching the Earth • iesFuture plans
Radio emissions from the corona and inner heliosphere JLB / 2002.04.24 / ST-21 / EGS-Nice- 3 -
Coronal Mass Ejections Fast and narrow CMES associated with short duration emissions (electron beams, typeIII). Fast and large CMEs associated with complex radio emissions at meter wavelengths lasting >> 10 minutes. Also associated with flares Radio detects these events above the solar limb and on-disk
Flare/CME events • Radio complex events over a large frequency range Similarity 1MHz and 1-3 GHz Reiner et al. (2001,02) • Long duration >20 min • Origin in low corona
CME and Complex radio events • 26 complex radio events 20 events associated with shocks (type II-like features) • 26 associated with CMEs (also Cane, 2002); 17 halo CMEs; 7 Width> 100°. (reach Earth) • *Emitting radio sources (NRH meter λ) complexand spread over a large volume; onset of new sources • * Coronal processes, involving multiple B system participate in the eruption.

Halo CME May 02 1998: Disk observations Pohjolainen et al., 2001
October 28 2003 Halo CME CME C2 LASCO RH Nançay • Radio imaging at 164 Mhz • traces the early CME development and the regions of • B interaction • The coronal wave and the CME encompasses most of the • solar disk (10 min)
CME proxies On-disk and limb CMEs • Fast progression in latitude • Full extend: < 10 min • Successive loop interactions • Super-alfvenic disturbance W E N S • Angular extend • Speed (3000km/s) Duration (lateral spread) Indication on V

Pair of long duration radio emissions Slow drifting BW 300KHz Post eruptive emissions of long duration dm-dam λ (NRH site) km bandwidth 300kHz drifting, Widely ≠ frequency range. Similar temporal, spectral profiles + + PFFS extrapolation
Pairs of two continua not connected + Low frequency continuum • If first harmonic emission, velocity of expansion 485 km/s and mean altitude of 5Rsnear onset; CME has reached altitude of 6Rs (fp×r = 20kHz 1AU);13 UT 15 Rs • If plasma emission, kilometric source lower density than the source of metric continuum • Suggestion: Destabilization of loop system (Km) created by B interaction between expanding CME and neighbouring loops • Electrons radiating low freq continuum originates in region of interaction (sporadic m activity)
Concluding remarks • Proxies • improve the characteristics : V , lateral expansion (statistical study) • Investigation on polarization • Futur work • S-Waves (STEREO) • Link with other sites • Survey SOHO 1997-to-day, in progress • Spectograph page > 16 hours • Includes spectral frequency range toward microwave
