We report on the simultaneous observation of a Moreton wave in Hα and two kinds of coronal expanding features in soft X-rays near the solar limb. We consider the faster X-ray feature and the slower one as being an “X-ray wave” and “ejecta”, respectively. The chromospheric Moreton wave propagated on the solar disk at a speed of 1040± 100 km s−1, whereas the coronal X-ray wave propagated outside of the disk toward the outer corona at 1400± 250kms−1. We identified the X-ray wave as MHD fast-mode shock. The fast-mode Mach number (Mf) of the X-ray wave was also estimated to be about 1.13–1.31, which decreases during propagation. The timing when the Mf became “1” is consistent with that of the disappearance of the Moreton wave. Moreover, we discuss the 3-dimensional structure of the shock wave and the relation between the shock wave and the ejecta (and Hα filament eruptions).
