Scientific paper

We present the first results of the STEREO/Waves (S/Waves) investigation on the STEREO Mission. The S/Waves instrument includes a suite of state-of-the-art sub-instruments that provide comprehensive measurements of the three components of the electric field from a fraction of a Hertz up to 16 MHz, plus a single frequency channel near 30 MHz. The instrument has a direction finding or goniopolarimetry capability, used to perform 3-D localization and tracking of streams of energetic electrons and of shock waves associated with Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). The scientific objectives include (i) remote observation and measurement of energetic phenomena throughout the 3-D heliosphere that are associated with the CMEs and with solar flare phenomena, and (ii) in-situ measurement of the properties of CMEs, such as their electron density and temperature and the associated plasma waves near 1 Astronomical Unit.
