Interacting coronal mass ejections: origin, evolution, and helio-effectiveness across the inner heliosphere KU Leuven
Since the advent of the Space Age, our society has become more and more susceptible to the conditions of the near-Earth space, which is primarily shaped by solar activity. Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the most energetic and largest scale solar eruptions and are the main drivers of severe space weather disturbances at Earth. When launched in rapid succession, CMEs can interact during propagation through interplanetary space, undergoing ...
