Observations of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) at low frequency radio region on 15th April 2012 (original) (raw)

We have carried out a case study on Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) as a massive burst of solar wind and magnetic fields rising above the solar corona. During 15th April 2012, solar filament eruption was accompanied by intense CMEs. This explosion of CMEs observed by the Solar Dynamics Observatory with sunspot AR1458 is crackling with C-class solar flares. Solar flare type B3 and C2 were observed beginning 2241 UT and 0142 UT in the active region AR1458. In the present work, we focus in the range of the low frequency region from 150 MHz to 400 MHz. At preliminary stage, starting from 12.00 UT till 1.00 UT there is a strong signal which indicates a formation of burst. Type II burst originated from solar corona can be observed in the range of 150 MHz to 230 MHz. Instead of type II, a moving type IV and continuum type III burst can be detected at 150 MHz and lasting for 1 hours. This event is considered as second largest CMEs been detected since five (5) years. We can then conclude that currently, the Sun is in the phase of gradually increase to reach maximum 24th solar cycle.
