A classic filament disruption/coronal transient event ocurred on 10 January 1974. After the prominence liftoff, “gradual” x-rays were recorded by Solrad 9. A white light coronal ejection, interpreted as a loop seen edge-on, followed. During the mass outflow, Hα loops formed at the original site of the prominence. The loops appeared also in EUV spectroheliograms, and rose rapidly before vanishing abruptly. During the disintegration of the loops the apices showed great enhancements and vertical spike structures. The overall behavior of this loop prominence system is compatible with reconnection models.

The role of the magnetic field in a coronal mass ejection event has not been unequivocally defined, and may in fact be quite variable in view of the large variety of shapes and sizes of coronal transients. Measurements of the magnetic field associated with these events have thus far been inferred from simultaneously observed radio bursts, which provide no information on the direction of the field and are limited in spatial resolution. Substantial improvement in these two areas could be achieved by continuous monitoring of the Faraday rotation of a linearly polarized spacecraft signal during solar occultation. A coronal event traversing the line-of-sight would yield a characteristic profile in cross section, which would be of value for discriminating between the various models of coronal transients.

The type II solar radio bursts produced by a shock wave passing through the solar corona are one of the most frequently studied solar activity phenomena. The scientific interest in this type of phenomenon is due to the fact that the presence of this radio event in a solar flare is an almost certain indicator of a future geophysical effect. The origin of the shock waves which produce these bursts is not at all simple; besides the shocks which are generated as a result of a strong energy release during the impulsive phase of a flare, there are also the shocks generated by a coronal mass ejection or the shocks which appear in the interplanetary space due to the supplementary acceleration of the solar particles.

On September 24, 2011 a solar flare of M 7.1 class was released from the Sun. The flare was observed by most of the space and ground based observatories in various wavebands. We have carried out a study of this flare to understand its causes on Sun and impact on earth. The flare was released from NOAA active region AR 11302 at 12:33 UT. Although the region had already produced many M class flares and one X- class flare before this flare, the magnetic configuration was not relaxed and still continued to evolve as seen from HMI observations. From the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) multi-wavelength (131 Ã…, 171 Ã…, 304 Ã… and 1600Ã…) observations we identified that a rapidly rising flux rope triggered the flare although HMI observations revealed that magnetic configuration did not undergo a much pronounced change. The flare was associated with a halo Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) as recorded by LASCO/SOHO Observations. The flare associated CME was effective in causing an intense geomagnetic storm with minimum Dst index -103 nT. A radio burst of type II was also recorded by the WAVES/WIND. In the present study attempt is made to study the nature of coupling between solar transients and geospace.

Outflows from low-mass young stellar objects are thought to draw upon the energy released by accretion onto T Tauri stars. I briefly summarize the evidence for this accretion and outline present estimates of mass accretion rates. Young stars show a very large range of accretion rates, and this has important implications for both mass ejection and for the structure of stellar magnetospheres which may truncate T Tauri disks.
