Sam Warfel Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 The halo part would be slower and dimmer, and not visible there. At least not yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozy Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 The eruption actually started before it triggered the flare so that's probably what ur seeing on the first images. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philalethes Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 I was considering starting a thread for this region earlier today, but I thought, "meh, it doesn't look that interesting"; actually, it still doesn't, but clearly appearances can be deceiving.

No, it's typically the other way around. It's not an exact correlation, but more eruptive flares tend to be longer in duration rather than shorter; conversely, the shortest flares tend to not be eruptive. However, it's worth noting that while typically associated, duration and eruptivity refer to different things, the former referring to the duration of the flare itself in terms of X-ray flux, and the latter referring to the presence and strength of a CME. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arjemma Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Really nice eruption with nice coronal waves and STEREO A shows full halo CME although the most of the ejecta going upwards. Will be interesting to see LASCO images but it does look like it might have an earth directed component even if the most of it seems to miss us. I'm so impatient for LASCO now... 🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristan Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 I don't think that this eruption has an Earth-directed component. STEREO shows the bulk of the erupted material heading west, with only a weak halo. Also there has been no increase in high energy protons or in EPAM electrons. Hopefully, this rather unassuming region can produce another surprise as it rotates into a better Earth-facing position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
