Note: CME visible in the SW of SOHO LASCO C2/C3 and in STEREO A COR2. The source is a prominence eruption on the SW limb starting around 2023-08-17T02:15Z. The material can be seen lifting off in SDO AIA 193/304, opening field lines are visible in SDO AIA 171/193. The eruption is also visible on the SW limb in STEREO A EUV imagery. This is believed to be associated with a C3.6 flare from Active Region 3394 which rotated off the Earth-facing disk on 2023-08-15, situated around longitude 105-110 during this eruption. Slight elevation in GOES > 10 MeV, SOHO COSTEP proton flux, and STEREO A proton flux observed in the hours after this eruption, but these values remained below the threshold for an SEP event.

CME Analysis M2M_CATALOG LE true SWPC_CAT 105.0 -26.0 859.0 C 43.0 2023-08-17T06:50Z Measurement using longitude where eruption is likely centered beyond west limb based on EUV imagery, but longitude may vary between approximately 90 to 110 degrees. This measurement of the leading edge is similar to the measurement for the shock of this CME. The shock of this CME was not clearly discernible in SOHO C3 difference imagery, so the most reliable measurements for this CME were taken for the leading edge. 1: Result 1 (2.0 AU)
