Examples of fast solar wind transients, their sources and the forecast of possible geomagnetic impact

We present examples of solar ejecta, including possible interplanetary magnetic clouds, which generated fast forward interplanetary shocks as they moved rapidly through the interplanetary medium. These events occurred before and during the ISTP era. The example from 1982, close to solar maximum, was...
