"EIT waves" are a globally propagating wavelike phenomenon. They were often interpreted as a fast-mode magnetoacoustic wave in the corona, despite various discrepancies between the fast-mode wave model and observations. To reconcile these…
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) drive powerful shocks and thereby accelerate solar energetic particles (SEPs) as they propagate from the corona into interplanetary space. Here we present the processes of three-stage particle acceleration by a…
