Radio and X-Ray Studies of a Coronal Mass Ejection Associated with a Very Slow Prominence Eruption

摘要

We report on the observations of an X-ray coronal mass ejection (CME) with its three part structure: frontal loop, coronal cavity, and the eruptive prominence core. The prominence core was observed in microwaves, and the frontal loop was observed in X-rays. A coronal volume much larger than that occupied by the prominence seems to be affected by the eruption. Formation of an arcade structure was also observed beneath the erupting prominence. X-ray enhancement at the arcade persisted for several hours similar to long decay events. At the apex of the arcade there was a bright knot, which we interpret as the reconnection region from which the filament gets detached. We determined the trajectories of the frontal loop and the prominence core and found them to have very different characteristics.
