Coronal Mass Ejection, Solar Flares, Dh-Type Ii Radio Bursts

Scientific paper

We studied the characteristics of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) associated with solar flares and Deca-Hectometric (DH) type II radio bursts, based on source position during 23rd solar cycle (1997-2007). We classified these CME events into three groups using solar flare locations as, (i) disk events (0-30∘); (ii) intermediate events (31-60∘) and (iii) limb events (61-90∘). Main results from this studies are, (i) the number of CMEs associated with solar flares and DH-type IIs decreases as the source position approaches from disk to limb, (ii) most of the DH CMEs are halo (72%) in disk events and the number of occurrence of halo CMEs decreases from disk to limb, (iii) the average width and speed of limb events (164∘ and 1447 km s-1) are higher than those of disk events (134∘ and 1035 km s-1) and intermediate events (146∘ and 1170 km s-1) and (iv) the average accelerations for disk, intermediate and limb events are -8.2 m s-2, -10.3 m s-2 and -4.5 m s-2 respectively. These analysis of CMEs properties show more dependency on longitude and it gives strong evidence for projection effect.
