Solar Origins of Interplanetary Shocks

L.K. Harra

Solar-B will provide unprecedented detail of the changes in the solar atmosphere leading up to the eruption of coronal mass ejections. The SOT will provide measurements of flows and shear in the photospheric magnetic field, XRT will provide high resolution full Sun images to track global responses, and EIS will provide measurements of flows and dynamics in the solar atmosphere. I will discuss the recent observations made with the array of space and ground-based observations currently available on the sources of coronal mass ejections, and will discuss how Solar-B will be able to push forward our understanding of these dramatic events.
