Interplanetary Shock (or CME Arrival)
Catalog: M2M_CATALOG
Location: Earth
Event Time: 2023-07-21T19:25Z ( DSCOVR: PLASMAG )
All Detecting Spacecrafts:
DSCOVR: PLASMAG
ACE: SWEPAM
ACE: MAG
Activity ID: 2023-07-21T19:25:00-IPS-001 (version 2)
Quality of ICME Signature: 2 (clear signatures)
Note: From Tarik Mohammad, LASSOS team: a well-defined shock (increase in magnetic field strength, proton density, and bulk speed). It is difficult to determine the jump in temperature due to scaling. There is a possible sheath region following the shock (enhancements in all the parameters are visible). The possible ICME ejecta start is around 2023-07-21T22:20Z. Around this time we see rotations in both B_y (positive to negative) and B_z (negative to positive). This also corresponds to a sharp decrease in proton density and also decrease in bulk speed and temperature. This is a possible flank CME encounter since the components (specially B_x and B_y remain constant). The end of the ICME ejecta is difficult to determine as we have a trailing high-speed stream. The possible end is around 2023-07-22T06:00Z.
