Space Weather: Numerical Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) Study of Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs): Initiation and Propagation

一项为期三年的研究计划的目标是利用数值磁流体力学(MHD)模式和观测来加强太阳日冕物质抛射(CME)的启动和传播。这项活动包括两个部分，(I)研究太阳喷发现象的基本物理，特别是日冕物质抛射的启动过程和传播，(Ii)预测扰动的太阳风参数，这对太阳-行星际-磁层耦合研究是重要的。这项工作的总体目标是为发展以科学为基础的空间天气预报模式奠定基础。

A three-year research program is pursued with the goal of using numerical magnetohydro-dynamic (MHD) models and observations to sturdy the initiation and propagation of solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs). There are two components to this activity, (i) to study the fundamental physics of solar eruptive phenomena, specifically the CME initiation process and propagation, and (ii) to predict the disturbed solar wind parameters which are important to solar-interplanetary-magnetosphere coupling studies. The overarching objective of this work is to lay the foundation for the development of a science-based space weather predictive model.
