  2. Who? EU FP7: GA no: 606692

  3. Why? • FP7 HELCATS (1stMay 2014 ─ 1st May 2017) • Capitalises on European expertise in heliosphericimaging (esp. STEREO) - also exploiting the wealth of European experience in solar and coronal imaging and the interpretation of in-situ and radio measurements of solar wind phenomena. • Coordinated effort to produce a unique benchmark study of transients in the heliosphere, their sources and impacts, including assessment of models and methods EU FP7: GA no: 606692

  4. Overview - CMEs in the heliosphere

  5. Overview - CMEs in the heliosphere FP SSE HM HICAT STEREO/HI catalogue of all heliospheric CMEs (Manual catalogue incl. 3D kinematic properties) – 965 (A) & 936 (B) CMEs in heliosphere (2007-2014)

  6. Overview - CMEs in the heliosphere CACTus/HI Automated detection catalogue of all STEREO/HI heliospheric CMEs (1501 (A) & 1794 (B) events 2007-2014)

  7. Overview - linking to in-situ events DATACAT Catalogue of in-situ (plasma and field) events at various spacecraft ICMECAT Catalogue of interplanetary CMEs arriving at Earth (267 events) LINKCAT Catalogue linking in-situ events (DATACAT) to HICAT events

  8. Overview - linking to coronal events STEREO-A /COR1 STEREO-A /HI-1 KINCAT STEREO/COR2 coronal CME catalogue, using GCS model for kinetic properties (109 events) LOWCAT Catalogue of solar source region events, from back-projected CME data (109 events)

  9. Overview – CIRs Example of CIR catalogue output available on the IRAP propagation tool (http://propagationtool.cdpp.eu/) CIRCAT Catalogue of STEREO/HI CIRs (190 events)

  10. Overview – Initialising advanced numerical models based on the kinematic properties of STEREO/HI CMEs and CIRs Transform the STEREO/HI CME and CIR catalogues into more advanced catalogues of simulation results of CMEs and CIRs, optimised through the direct assimilation of the heliospheric imagery

  11. Overview – Assessing the complementary nature of radio measurements of solar wind transients IPSCAT EISCAT & LOFAR catalogue and case studies linked to HICAT Type II Catalogue STEREO S/WAVES Type II radio catalogue and case studies linked to HICAT Study of S/WAVES radio burst associated with a CME in the STEREO/HI catalogue [Krupar et al., 2016, Ap.J.)

  14. What? • The general aims of HELCATS are to: • catalogue transient (CME) and background (CIR/SIR) structures imaged in the heliosphere by STEREO/HI, including estimated kinematic properties from established and speculative techniques; • verify these kinematic properties, hence assessing the validity of the techniques, by comparing with solar source/coronal observations, and in-situ measurements at multiple points in the heliosphere; • assess the potential for initialising advanced numerical models based on the derived kinematic properties of both the transient and background solar wind; • assess the complementarity of combining heliospheric imagery with radio-based methods to detect structures and diagnose processes in the heliosphere (IPS and Type II radio bursts); • provide the scientific community with easy access to HELCATS catalogues and methodologies, enabling a much wider exploitation and understanding of heliospheric imaging observations.
