Flare Induced Shocks and Corotating Streams in the Interplanetary Medium

M. Wiseman, P. A. Dennison

Open publisher page 15 citations

Abstract

Geomagnetic storm sudden commencements (ssc) and sudden increases (si) can be caused by either a propagating discontinuity (i.e. a hydromagnetic shock or blast wave) in the interplanetary plasma or by the convection past the Earth of a discontinuity in the ambient solar plasma flow.
