We present an advance towards accurately predicting the arrivals of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) at the terrestrial planets, including Earth. For the first time, we are able to assess a CME prediction model using data over 2/3 of a solar…

We investigate the magnetic origin of the coronal mass ejection (CME) that occurred on November 28, 2023, at 19:50UT from active region (AR) 13500 located near the solar disk-center. The eruption was associated with an S-shaped sigmoidal…
