Scientific paper

The recently refurbished Ooty Radio Telescope in southern India was used in a two-month campaign of interplanetary scintillation (IPS) observations in collaboration with the Cambridge IPS array in England during Apr.-May 1992. The unique feature of this campaign was that, for the first time, scintillation enhancements were predicted in real time by observing solar events on 7-8 May, 1992 and then detected at both Ooty and Cambridge. Also, for the first time, high spatial resolution (approximately 100 sources/sr) solar wind all-sky velocity maps were obtained at Ooty. Good consistency is found between the IPS observations from both observatories and in-situ shocks detected at Earth by IMP-8. Yohkoh soft X-ray images were used to infer the generation of a coronal mas ejection on 7 May 1992.
