Assessing the Projection Correction of Coronal Mass Ejection Speeds on Time‐of‐Arrival Prediction Performance Using the Effective Acceleration Model by Evangelos Paouris, Angelos Vourlidas, Athanasios Papaioannou, Anastasios Anastasiadis

“…Abstract White light images of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are projections on the plane‐of‐sky (POS). As a result, CME kinematics are subject to projection effects. The error in the true (deprojected) speed of CMEs is one of the main causes of uncertainty to Space Weather forecasts, since all estimates of the CME time‐of‐arrival (ToA) at a certain location within the heliosphere require, as input, the CME speed. …”
