Streamer-blowout coronal mass ejections (SBO-CMEs) are the dominant CME population during solar minimum. Although they are typically slow and lack clear low-coronal signatures, they can cause geomagnetic storms. With the aid of extrapolated…

Halo coronal mass ejections (CMEs) were found to be significantly faster than normal CMEs, which was a long-standing puzzle. In order to solve the puzzle, we first investigate the observed properties of 31 limb CMEs that display clearly…
