CME and ICME Event list - a comprehensive event list of chain of cause-effect of solar eruptive events from Sun to Earth. The ISEST (International Study of Earth-Affecting Solar Transients) is one of the four projects of the VarSITI (Variability of the Sun and Its Terrestrial Impact) program, which runs from 2014 to 2018. The VarSITI is the current scientific program of SCOSTEP (Scientific Committee on Solar-Terrestrial Physics.

Beginning of the ICME signature in-situ at ACE
Estimated End of ICME signature in-situ at ACE
First appearance of the CME in LASCO C2, or STEREO COR2 in the event of a LASCO data gap.
Describes the signature in-situ, Shock Front (SH), MC (Magnetic Cloud), EJ (CME Ejecta Front)
The Source Active region of the CME, if there is one
The location of the Active Region or, if there is no AR, the approximate location of the eruption.
If the CME is associated with a flare, the strength of the flare.
The beginning of the flare
The velocity of the CME, as determined by the SEEDS C2 Catalog. These velocities are for quick reference only, and should not be taken at face value. There are different errors that are present in these velocities and they should not be used for an serious study or research work
The velocity of the CME, as determined by the SEEDS STEREO Catalog. These velocities are for quick reference only, and should not be taken at face value. There are different errors that are present in these velocities and they should not be used for an serious study or research work
The velocity of the CME, as determined by the SEEDS STEREO Catalog. These velocities are for quick reference only, and should not be taken at face value. There are different errors that are present in these velocities and they should not be used for an serious study or research work
The average velocity of the CME as calculated by determining the time of the CME in C2 and the beginning of the signature in-situ
The average velocity of the ejecta at ACE
The lowest value of the DST index
The time when the lowest value of the DST index occurs (as long as the peak is below -40)
The beginning of the CME Ejecta in-situ (if there is no shock this is the same as the ICME start time)
This denotes the quality of the event's signature in-situ, 1 is the best, 3 is the worst.

A link to a movie of the CME in LASCO C2
A link to a movie of the CME in STEREO COR2
A link to a movie of the eruption on the Sun as seen by either the SOHO EIT or SDO AIA instrument
The velocity of the CME, as determined by the CDAW CME Catalog. These velocities are for quick reference only, and should not be taken at face value. There are different errors that are present in these velocities and they should not be used for an serious study or research work
