A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a significant ejection of plasma mass from the Sun's corona into the heliosphere. CMEs are often associated with solar flares and other forms of solar activity , but a broadly accepted theoretical understanding of these relationships has not been established.
The actual mass of the coronal mass ejection is now interacting with Earth's own magnetic field, the Space Weather Prediction Center said Friday. During these geomagnetic storms, the plasma and ...
A coronal mass ejection (CME) ... like models of solar flares [17] ... led to the premature reentry and destruction of 40 SpaceX Starlink satellites launched February ...
A fast-moving coronal mass ejection (CME) -- a powerful burst of magnetized plasma from the sun's corona -- erupted from the sun on Tuesday night, prompting NOAA's Space Prediction Center to issue ...
How fast does a coronal mass ejection travel vs. a solar flare? A CME can reach speeds of almost 1,900 miles per second. At that speed one can reach Earth in about 15 to 18 hours. But CMEs do like ...
The geomagnetic storm causing this event is believed to be the result of two separate events known as coronal mass ejections (CME) on March 10 and 12, 1989. [2] A few days before, on March 6, a very large X15-class solar flare also occurred. [3] Several days later, at 01:27 UT on March 13, a severe geomagnetic storm struck Earth.

On 12 February 2010, active region AR11046 produced an M8.3-class flare. Later in the month, active regions AR11045 and AR11046 unleashed a total of nine M-class flares. On 5 April 2010, the first coronal mass ejection (CME) of cycle 24 erupted at an active region causing a G3 (strong) geomagnetic storm on Earth.
