The Interaction<br />

• As the CME passes through the streamer belt it<br />

decelerates.<br />

• Leading edge of the fast stream interacts with the slow<br />

streamer belt flow and forms a pair (forward and reverse)<br />

of shocks.<br />

• The CME is trapped between the fast coronal hole flow<br />

and the slow streamer belt – it is sandwiched with the<br />

CIR structure.<br />

• The CME effects the CIR evolution as well – the trailing<br />

CIR is eroded.
