	1) Extended Filaments at the Limb

	Sequence: 05.09_StrObs.tcl, sw = 1

	SCI_SPEC: From JOP Description found at the following URL:

		  http://soho.nascom.nasa.gov/soc/JOPs/jop175.txt

		  Note: Some information may be obsolete.

		  Draft received 19 February 2004.
		  SOC added UVCS details & POC 23 February 2004.

		  SCIENTIFIC GOALS: (1) To relate the magnetic field morphology 
		  of an erupting filament to the structure observed as the 
		  white-light CME; (2) Does the fluxrope exist prior to the 
		  eruption?

		  REQUESTED OBSERVATIONS:  Target-of-opportunity.
		  Long, non-active region, filament during West limb transit 
		  (e.g., polar crown, although any extended filament will 
		  suffice)
		          -EIT (304A in CME watch mode, full-frame)
		          -TRACE (195A CME watch mode, framed as 02Jun1998 EIT 
		           example)
		          -LASCO synoptic mode
			  -UVCS (C III, O VI and Ly beta)
 		          Others?

		  POINTS-OF-CONTACT:  St. Cyr, Schrijver, Gurman, J. Raymond

		  SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE:

		  Attached is a partial frame EIT 195 image from the June 2, 
		  1998 eruption of the south polar crown filament eruption. 
		  Plunkett et al (2000, SolPhys, 194,371-391) described this 
		  event and demonstrated that the "cusp" or concave-out shape 
		  above the filament was visible for many hours in EIT before 
		  the eruption. The cusp appears to be the concave-outward 
		  portion of the form we call a fluxrope in LASCO CMEs.

		  We are aware of a few more of these pre-eruption shapes 
		  above filaments, but the EIT temporal resolution (and the 
		  geometry?) is typically not sufficient to determine when 
		  the cusp appears above the prominence.
