Overview
• CME Models
• Image Processing: Multiscale methods
• CME Morphology & Kinematics
• Application to LASCO and STEREO/SECCHI LASCO/C3 27-Feb-00
CME Models
• Magnetic Flux-Rope:
• Magnetic Break-out:
-Forbes & Priest, 1990-Chen & Krall, 2003
-Antiochos et al. 1999-Lynch et al. 2004
Image Pre-Processing
• Normalisation - exposure time- CCD bias- data dropouts
