The trajectories of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are often seen to substantially deviate from a purely radial propagation direction. Such deviations occur predominantly in the corona and have been attributed to "channeling" or deflection…
Observations of the interplanetary shock provide us with strong evidence of particle acceleration to multi-MeV energies, even up to GeV energy, in a solar flare or coronal mass ejection (CME). Diffusive shock acceleration is an efficient…
Energetic particles emitted by active stars are likely to propagate in astrospheric magnetized plasma turbulent and disrupted by the prior passage of energetic Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). We carried out test-particle simulations of…

The Sun is an active star that can launch large eruptions of magnetised plasma into the heliosphere, called coronal mass ejections (CMEs). These ejections can drive shocks that accelerate particles to high energies, often resulting in radio…
