Shock location and CME 3D reconstruction of a solar type II radio burst with LOFAR

P. Zucca, D. E. Morosan, A. P. Rouillard +62

Type II radio bursts are evidence of shocks in the solar atmosphere and inner heliosphere that emit radio waves ranging from sub-meter to kilometer lengths. These shocks may be ass…
