Dr. Hong Xie, a solar physicist with CUA, joined Code 671 in April 2003. She has been working on data analysis of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), CME-driven shocks, and associated geomagnetic storms. She is currently maintaining the COR1 preliminary CME catalog. Her research interests include the origin, three-dimensional structure, and evolution of CMEs. She has developed new analytical CME cone model fitting procedure, and incorporated a geometrical flux-rope model fitting for STEREO/COR coronagraph images. In 2009, working with STEREO team, Dr. St. Cyr and Dr. Gopalswamy, by using flux-rope models and 3D triangulations, she has studied the origin, 3D structure and kinematic evolution of CMEs near solar minimum using STEREO COR1 and COR2 data. She also improved the shock prediction technique based on the empirical shock arrival (ESA) model, where CME deceleration is included in the corrected ESA and synthesized with kilometric Type II-derived shock velocities. Her recent research focused on SEP onset time, SEP intensity and their relation to the type II radio burst, CME shock formation time and speed, the deflection and rotation of CMEs, connection between the structure of magnetic flux rope in solar source regions: quiescent prominence regions and flare- producing active regions, CME-Flux Ropes in the extended corona and magnetic clouds at 1 au.
