Large-scale waves in the solar corona: The continuing debate
TLDR
In this paper, the authors focus on strong coronal wave events that do show chromospheric Moreton wave signatures, and they find strong evidence for the wave/shock scenario, which might explain some of the issues which have made the interpretation of these phenomena so controversial.About:

Coronal Mass Ejections: Models and Their Observational Basis
TL;DR: In this paper, a review on each stage of the CME phenomenon is presented, including their pre-eruption structure, their triggering mechanisms and the precursors indicating the initiation process, their acceleration and propagation.

Advances in Observing Various Coronal EUV Waves in the SDO Era and Their Seismological Applications (Invited Review)
Wei Liu,Leon Ofman,Leon Ofman +2 more
TL;DR: Recently, the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) has observed more than 210 global extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) waves in exquisite detail, thanks to its high spatio-temporal resolution and full-disk, wide-temperature coverage as discussed by the authors.

The 2011 february 15 x2 flare, ribbons, coronal front, and mass ejection: interpreting the three-dimensional views from the solar dynamics observatory and stereo guided by magnetohydrodynamic flux-rope modeling
TL;DR: The 2011 February 15 X2.2 flare and associated Earth-directed halo coronal mass ejection were observed in unprecedented detail with high resolution in spatial, temporal, and thermal dimensions by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on the Solar Dynamics Observatory, as well as by instruments on the two STEREO spacecraft, then at near-quadrature relative to the Sun-Earth line as discussed by the authors.

First Observations of a Dome-shaped Large-scale Coronal Extreme-ultraviolet Wave
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the first observations of a dome-shaped large-scale extreme-ultraviolet coronal wave, recorded by the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager instrument on board STEREO-B on 2010 January 17.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale Globally Propagating Coronal Waves
TL;DR: This review focuses on demonstrating how the numerous observational findings of the last one and a half decades can be used to constrain the authors' models of large-scale coronal waves, and how a coherent physical understanding of these disturbances is finally emerging.

TL;DR: RHESSI as discussed by the authors is a Principal Investigator (PI) mission, where the PI is responsible for all aspects of the mission except the launch vehicle, and is designed to investigate particle acceleration and energy release in solar flares, through imaging and spectroscopy of hard X-ray/gamma-ray continua emitted by energetic electrons, and of gamma-ray lines produced by energetic ions.

On the temporal relationship between coronal mass ejections and flares

TL;DR: In this article, an earth-directed coronal mass ejection (CME) was observed on May 12, 1997 by the SOHO Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) and was later observed by the Large Angle Spectrometric Coronagraph (LASCO) as a "halo" CME: a bright expanding ring centered about the occulting disk.
