<p>The estimation of the Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) arrival is an open issue in the field of Space Weather. Many models have been developed to predict Time-of-Arrival (ToA). In this work, we utilize an updated version of the Effective Acceleration Model (EAM) to calculate the ToA. The EAM predicts the ToA of the CME-driven shock and the sheath's average speed at 1 AU. The model assumes that the interaction between the ambient solar wind and the interplanetary CME (ICME) results in constant acceleration or deceleration. We recently compared EAM against ENLIL and drag based models (DBEM) with a sample of 16 CMEs. We confirmed the well-known fact that the deceleration of fast ICMEs in the interplanetary medium is not captured by most models. We study further the deceleration of fast ICMEs by introducing, for the first time, wide-angle observations by the STEREO heliospheric imagers into the EAM model. The speed profiles for some test cases show deceleration in the interplanetary medium at greater distances compared with the field-of-view of the coronagraphs.</p>

AbstractForecasting the time of arrival of a Coronal Mass Ejection at Earth is of critical importance for our high-technology society and for any future manned exploration of the Solar System. As critical as the forecast accuracy is the knowledge of its precision, i.e. the error associated to the estimate. Here a statistical approach to the computation of the time of arrival using the Drag-Based Model is proposed through the introduction of probability distributions, rather than exact values, as input parameters, thus allowing the evaluation of the uncertainty on the forecast.

AbstractWe have investigated the case of a coronal mass ejection that was eroded by the fast wind of a coronal hole in the interplanetary medium. When a solar ejection takes place close to a coronal hole, the flux rope magnetic topology of the coronal mass ejection (CME) may become misshapen at 1 AU as a result of the interaction. Detailed analysis of this event reveals erosion of the interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) magnetic field. In this communication, we study the photospheric magnetic roots of the coronal hole and the coronal mass ejection area with HMI/SDO magnetograms to define their magnetic characteristics.
