Composite image of the coronal mass
ejection (CME) observed on February 8, 2000 by SOHO LASCO and SOHO EIT.
Difference image
on the right shows the ejected material in detail. The average velocity of
the ejected mass was estimated to be around 1100 km/s. This CME and the
associated events and features were analysed at Tuorla, in collaboration
with solar researchers in Meudon, Glasgow, and Athens.
The CME catalogue is maintained by NASA and the Catholic University
of America in cooperation with the Naval Research Laboratory. SOHO is a
project of international cooperation between ESA and NASA.
