2012-08-15T22:35:03 --> 2012-08-16T02:30:03

A filament eruption, presumably from behind the limb, as no signature of the filament could be seen prior to the event.

2012-08-15T10:00:04 --> 2012-08-15T15:00:04

The filament material that lifts off is rather translucent so but a close look at the movie shows that it's definitely happening.

2012-08-15T01:40:04 --> 2012-08-15T09:20:04

The loops associated with AR 11540 near the limb brightened at about the time that the eruption from AR 11543 took place. Following the loop brightenings once finds the appearance of new coronal condensations draining from the bright loops.

Like the eruption on 2012-08-13, this eruption from AR 11543 spews out material westward of the AR. Inspection of the HMI line-of-sight magnetogram sequence shows that the leading polarity spot is engulfed by field from the opposite polarity. Such conditions are likely ideal for the creation of sheared magnetic fields that cause the series of eruptions from this AR.

This polar filament was in the process of lifting off when this eruption from the lower latitudes took place. It's unclear whether there is connection between the two.

2012-08-13T12:15:04 --> 2012-08-13T15:45:04

An eruption from AR11543 sends faint absorbing filamentary material into open magnetic field lines. The material initially travels in a somewhat horizontal direction (w.r. to gravity) but then is seen to flow upward like smoke up a chimney.

2012-08-11T16:00:04 --> 2012-08-11T17:00:04

An eruption channels filamentary material into a magnetic funnel, which itself exhibits transverse oscillations triggered.

The leading footpoint of this filament is just visible near the limb as bright loops in 304, 171 and 211. The footpoints of these loops have enhanced brightness when material drains down from the filment to the footpints.

This quiescent filament in the high northern polar regions of the Sun exhibits many upflow voids and downflow plumes in 304. It lifts off in a gentle but spectacular fashion.

This filament gently lifts off from the northeastern limb. It appears that one footpoint of the filament is on the front side while the other is on the far side of the limb.

2012-08-09T19:40:04 --> 2012-08-10T00:00:04

A filament from a compact AR destabilizes and erupts, with some twisting motion, in what appears to be the start of a CME.

2012-08-09T16:36:04 --> 2012-08-09T21:00:04

An eruption from what looks like a compact bipole on the side of a larger AR sends a perturbation front across QS loops towards the W and NW.

A QS filament, south of DC, activates, twirls, and ends in oscillatory motions of a string of chromospheric enclosures.

2012-08-07T00:00:04 --> 2012-08-07T20:00:04

A series of at least seven explosions in a smallish AR, just inside the SE limb, send out perturbation fronts into the surroundings, causing high off-limb loops to oscillate, and with visible couplings to regions at least half a solar radius away.
