Scientific paper

The connection between flares and CMEs has long been hypothesized and modelled. However, a full understanding of the processes at work remains ambiguous. A detailed study of the kinematical evolution of a CME was conducted using instruments on STEREO. Flare parameters, such as the motion of soft X-ray sources, imaged using RHESSI, and emission measure and plasma temperature measured from Mercury MESSENGER are presented in conjunction with the CME data to explain the evolution of the entire system. These results are then compared to a number of theoretical models to determine which of the many hypotheses are most probable for this event. CLR is supported by an SPD studentship and the ESA/Prodex grant administered by Enterprise Ireland.
