NRL Solar Physics Division SUMMARY The EFR model equations A self-contained description of the unified CME-flare-EP dynamics ‒ Correctly replicates observed CME dynamics to 1 AU—a challenge for any CME model It can be driven entirely by CME data to compute physical quantities: ‒ — coincides with temporal profile of GOES SXR data (Chen and Kunkel 2010) ‒ B field and plasma parameters at 1 AU — in agreement with data (Kunkel and Chen 2010) ‒ B(1 AU) is not sensitive to the temporal form of ; it is sensitive to the total poloidal energy injected (Kunkel, PhD thesis, 2012; Kunkel et al.
