The application of machine learning to the study of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and their impacts on Earth has seen significant growth recently. Understanding and forecasting CME geoeffectiveness is crucial for protecting infrastructure…

We report on a numerical investigation of two coronal mass ejections (CMEs) which interact as they propagate in the inner heliosphere. We focus on the effect of the orientation of the CMEs relative to each other by performing four different…

Decades of studies have suggested several criteria to detect Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICME) in time series from in-situ spacecraft measurements. Among them the most common are an enhanced and smoothly rotating magnetic field,…

A discrete tomography method has been developed that is able to reconstruct three-dimensional coronal mass ejection (CME) density structure. We test the method by producing synthetic coronagraph imagery for three events using the…

There have been few attempts in the past to understand the collision of individual cases of interacting Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs). We selected 8 cases of interacting CMEs and estimated their propagation and expansion speeds, direction…
