  2. Ambient Solar Wind Models SAIC 3-D MHD steady state coronal model based on photospheric field maps CU/CIRES-NOAA/SEC 3-D solar wind model based on potential and current-sheet source surface empirical models

  3. CME Cone Model Conceptual model: CME as a shell-like region of enhanced density Geometrical and kinematical fitting: Dependence of predicted CME halos on the latitude, longitude, angular width, and velocity [ Zhao et al., 2001 ]

  4. CME Cone Model Best fitting for May 12, 1997 halo CME • latitude: N3.0 • longitude: W1.0 • angular width: 50 deg • velocity:650 km/s at 24 Rs (14:15 UT) • acceleration: 18.5 m/s2 [ Zhao et al., 2001 ]
