TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the 3D simulation of a space weather event using the coupled model approach adopted by the Center for Integrated Space Weather Modeling (CISM), which employs corona, solar wind, and magnetosphere MHD models, and an upper atmosphere/ionosphere fluid dynamic model, with interfaces that exchange parameters specifying each component of the connected solar terrestrial system.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combined a state-of-the-art magnetohydrodynamic model of the solar corona and a model for the motion of emitting cometary tail ions in an embedded plasma.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method for constructing approximate force-free equilibria in pre-eruptive configurations in which a thin force free flux rope is embedded into a locally bipolar-type potential magnetic field.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the results of a multi-instrument, multi-technique, coordinated study of the solar eruptive event of 13 May 2005, and discuss the resultant Earth-directed (halo) coronal mass ejection (CME), and the effects on the terrestrial space environment and upper Earth atmosphere.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new MHD model for the propagation of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) in the solar wind is described, which solves the MHD equations in spherical coordinates from a lower boundary above the critical point to Earth and beyond.
