A SOLAR SCENARIO FOR THE ASSOCIATED OCCURRENCE OF FLARES, ERUPTIVE PROMINENCES, CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS, CORONAL HOLES, AND INTERPLANETARY SHOCKS

The observation of non-corotating shock fronts in interplanetary space is always associated with the previous occurrence of a coronal mass ejection (CME), which is frequently accompanied by a flare or a prominence eruption. When looking at the solar region of origin of these events, a coronal hole is always found. Here we propose a scenario at the Sun where all these related events can find a place.
