High-Time Resolution Study of the September 21, 1977 Sudden Commencement Using AFGL Magnetometer Data.

Abstract

An SSC, following a solar flare of importance 3B, is seen to travel across the AFGL Magnetometer Network from west to east. The disturbance flattens and decays of it propagates like a plane wave with the stations responding in order of their distance from the sub-solar point. (Author)
