The Sun, as an active star, is the driver of energetic phenomena that structure interplanetary space and affect planetary atmospheres. The effects of Space Weather on Earth and the solar system is of increasing importance as human spaceflight is preparing for lunar and Mars missions. This review is focusing on the solar perspective of the Space Weather relevant phenomena, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), flares, solar energetic particles (SEPs), and solar wind stream interaction regions (SIR). With the advent of the STEREO mission (launched in 2006), literally, new perspectives were provided that enabled for the first time to study coronal structures and the evolution of activity phenomena in three dimensions. New imaging capabilities, covering the entire Sun-Earth distance range, allowed to seamlessly connect CMEs and their interplanetary counterparts measured in-situ (so called ICMEs). This vastly increased our knowledge and understanding of the dynamics of interplanetary space due to solar activity and fostered the development of Space Weather forecasting models. Moreover, we are facing challenging times gathering new data from two extraordinary missions, NASA’s Parker Solar Probe (launched in 2018) and ESA’s Solar Orbiter (launched in 2020), that will in the near future provide more detailed insight into the solar wind evolution and image CMEs from view points never approached before. The current review builds upon the Living Reviews article by Schwenn from 2006, updating on the Space Weather relevant CME-flare-SEP phenomena from the solar perspective, as observed from multiple viewpoints and their concomitant solar surface signatures.

太空天气:太阳视角
太阳作为一颗活跃的恒星,是构成行星际空间并影响行星大气的高能现象的驱动力。随着人类航天为月球和火星任务做准备,空间天气对地球和太阳系的影响变得越来越重要。本综述重点关注太阳视角下的空间天气相关现象、日冕物质抛射 (CME)、耀斑、太阳高能粒子 (SEP) 和太阳风流相互作用区域 (SIR)。随着 STEREO 任务(2006 年启动)的出现,确实提供了新的视角,首次能够在三个维度上研究日冕结构和活动现象的演化。新的成像功能覆盖整个日地距离范围,可以无缝连接日冕物质抛射及其现场测量的行星际对应物(所谓的 ICME)。这极大地增加了我们对太阳活动导致的行星际空间动力学的认识和理解,并促进了空间天气预报模型的发展。此外,我们正面临着从两项非凡任务收集新数据的挑战:NASA 的帕克太阳探测器(2018 年发射)和 ESA 的太阳轨道飞行器(2020 年发射),这将在不久的将来提供有关太阳风演化和太阳风演化的更详细的见解。从以前从未接近过的角度观察日冕物质抛射。当前的评论以 Schwenn 2006 年发表的《生活评论》文章为基础,更新了从太阳角度观察的与空间天气相关的日冕物质抛射-SEP 现象,如从多个视角观察及其伴随的太阳表面特征。
