Scientific paper

The Helios-spacecraft zodiacal light photometers are used to observe the earthward-directed solar-mass ejection transient of November 27, 1979 described by Howard et al. (1982) that completely circles the sun in coronagraph observations. At this time, Helios B was situated 30 deg east of the sun-earth line at 0.5 AU. The brightness increase moved outward directly along the sun-earth line over a period of approximately 24 hr, indicating a strong collimation of the ejection. The outward motion and mass estimates of the ejected material from the photometers compared with near-earth observations from IMP spacecraft show that at least a portion of the density increase observed at earth on November 29 and 30 was associated with this ejection.
