TLDR
The SOHO/LASCO CME catalog as mentioned in this paper is a data base for the analysis of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) in the solar corona.
Abstract
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are routinely identified in the images of the solar corona obtained by the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) mission’s Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph (LASCO) since 1996. The identified CMEs are measured and their basic attributes are cataloged in a data base known as the SOHO/LASCO CME Catalog. The Catalog also contains digital data, movies, and plots for each CME, so detailed scientific investigations can be performed on CMEs and the related phenomena such as flares, radio bursts, solar energetic particle events, and geomagnetic storms. This paper provides a brief description of the Catalog and summarizes the statistical properties of CMEs obtained using the Catalog. Data products relevant to space weather research and some CME issues that can be addressed using the Catalog are discussed. The URL of the Catalog is: http://cdaw.gsfc.nasa.gov/CME_list.

Comparison of Features of the Generation of Coronal Mass Ejections with Variable Velocity in the Field of View of LASCO Coronagraphs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared features of the generation of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) with the lowest, intermediate, and highest velocities in the field of view of LASCO C2 and C3 coronagraphs found from an analysis of multi-wavelength data with high temporal and spatial resolution.

Type II radio bursts and their association with coronal mass ejections in solar cycles 23 and 24

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the occurrence of type II bursts in solar cycles 23 and 24 and their association with CMEs and found that most of the type II radio bursts had a white-light CME counterpart.

Waves: The Radio and Plasma Wave Investigation on the Wind Spacecraft

TL;DR: The WAVES investigation on the WIND spacecraft will provide comprehensive measurements of the radio and plasma wave phenomena which occur in Geospace as mentioned in this paper, in coordination with the other onboard plasma, energetic particles, and field measurements will help us understand the kinetic processes that are important in the solar wind and in key boundary regions of the Geospace.

Interplanetary acceleration of coronal mass ejections

TL;DR: In this article, an empirical model was proposed to predict the arrival of CMEs at 1 AU, based on the relation between the acceleration and initial speed of the CME.
