Hinode/EIS and SDO/AIA observations of an erupting 'EIT wave' from 25-February-2014

Estimating the energy of a global 'EIT wave'

by David Long, Deborah Baker, David Williams, Eoin Carley, Peter Gallagher & Pietro ZuccaHinode/EIS and SDO/AIA observations of an erupting 'EIT wave' from 25-February-2014 are used to estimate the energy of the wave using the Sedov-Taylor relation. For more details, see the EIS nugget here.
