Abstract: |
In this paper, we review the preliminary results on the propagation effects
and interplanetary consequences of fast and wide coronal mass ejection (CME)
events, occurred during
18–25 June 2015, in the Sun-Earth distance range. The interplanetary scintillation
(IPS) images reveal that the large-scale structures of CME-driven disturbances
filled nearly the entire inner heliosphere with a range of speeds, ∼300–1000
km s-1. The comparison of speed data sets, from IPS technique results in the inner
heliosphere and in-situ measurements at 1 AU, indicates that the drag
force imposed by the low-speed wind dominated heliosphere on the propagation
of CMEs may not be effective. The arrival of shocks at 1 AU
suggests that a shock can be driven in the interplanetary medium by the
central part of the moving CME and also by a different part away from its
centre. The increased flux of proton at energies >10 MeV is consistent
with the acceleration of particles by the shock ahead of the CME. |
