COronal Mass Ejections and Solar Energetic Particles: forecasting the space weather impact (COMESEP)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2014,
"This project develops tools for forecasting geomagnetic storms and solar energetic particle (SEP) radiation storms based on scientific data analysis and modeling. During the solar cycle, the Sun goes from quiet conditions at minimum to levels of high activity at maximum, where energetic phenomena, particularly coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and SEPs, are common. These are accompanied by explosive ...

High Energy Solar Physics Data in Europe (HESPE)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
"Hard X-ray observations provide a direct observational link to the acceleration and transport of highly energetic particles in solar flares, a phenomenon that has many significant solar-terrestrial consequences. We propose to mainstream the exploitation of high energy solar physics data in Europe. To achieve this overall objective, we will proceed with three complementary activities: theory, comp ...

The relationship between white light and in situ observations of coronal mass ejections (WILISCME)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
"Solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the source of the strongest disturbances of the Earth’s magnetic field. Masses of the magnitude of Mount Everest are expelled from the solar corona attaining speeds of millions of kilometres per hour and expanding to sizes of a considerable fraction of the Sun-Earth distance. When their complex of plasma and magnetic fields hits Earth and if this fulfils ce ...
