Building a 3-D Coronal Mass Ejection from 2-D Data
Using differences in polarization of light directly from the Sun vs. scattered from the CME electrons, it is possible to derive a distance of matter along the line-of-sight. This version is an enhanced version of animation ID 2950 (http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a000000/a002900/a002950/) with a color table enhanced to show fainter regions of the CME.
