Reconstruction of the Solar/Interplanetary Disturbances for the Space Weather Event on 6-10 Jan 1997

(*)
First indication of this space weather event came from the SOHO LASCO coronagraph team who announced occurrence of a white light halo in images obtained on 6 Jan 97. The figure at right shows a snapshot of the LASCO coronagraph halo, enhanced by differencing sequential images. An image from the SOHO MDI is superposed to show the state of the solar magnetic field on that day.
