THE DRIVER OF CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS IN THE LOW CORONA: A FLUX ROPE

THE DRIVER OF CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS IN THE LOW CORONA: A FLUX ROPE

Recent Solar Dynamic Observatory observations reveal that coronal mass ejections (CMEs) consist of a multi-temperature structure: a hot flux rope and a cool leading front (LF). The flux rope first appears as a twisted hot channel in the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) 94 Å and 131 Å passbands. The twisted …
