Solar events and solar wind conditions associated with intense geomagnetic storms

Abstract Intense magnetic storms pose a systemic threat to the electric power grid. In this study we examined the solar/interplanetary causes of such storms, their peak theoretical and observed intensities, and their occurrence frequency. Using coronal mass ejection (CME) and solar wind data, we sel...
