Notes. All spike parameters were derived for electrons in the energy range 55–65 keV.

(a)

In solar release time (SRT): taking into account the measured solar wind speed Vsw, the travel time of radio emission and electrons from the Sun to the s/c, and the s/c distance from the Sun (0.96 and 1.02 AU for STA and STB, respectively).

(b)

CME parameters taken from CACTUS (http://sidc.oma.be/cactus/; Robbrecht & Berghmans 2004).
