• COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF CORONAL MASS EJECTION MASS AND ENERGY PROPERTIES OVER A FULL SOLAR CYCLE (2010, methodology): “Interestingly, this value is consistent with forward modeling ratios in Thernisien et al.

• How Many CMEs Have Flux Ropes? Deciphering the Signatures of Shocks, Flux Ropes, and Prominences in Coronagraph Observations of CMEs (2012, methodology): “heoretical understanding of FRs as more or less cylindrical structures, elongated along their axis. It is also inconsistent with the analyses of the CME projection eects (Cremades and Bothmer, 2004; Thernisien, Vourlidas, and Howard, 2009). Our discussion above solves this problem.

• The Physical Processes of CME/ICME Evolution (2017, background): “In a similar vein, the graduated cylindrical shell (GCS) model (Thernisien et al. 2009; Vourlidas et al. 2011; Colaninno and Vourlidas 2015) provides a geometric representation of the CME cavity that is consistent with an idealized flux rope.”
• Deriving the radial distances of wide coronal mass ejections from elongation measurements in the heliosphere - application to CME-CME interaction (2009, methodology): “At the time, the two STEREO spacecraft were still in close proximity with Earth (within 0.5◦) and STEREO-A was rolled by about 22◦ from solar north.”
• The Wide-Field Imager for Solar Probe Plus (WISPR) (2014, background): “Currently, only the 3D morphology of the larger structures (e.g., CME outer envelope) can be modeled with SECCHI (Thernisien et al. 2009).”

• IMPLEMENTATION OF THE GRADUATED CYLINDRICAL SHELL MODEL FOR THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL RECONSTRUCTION OF CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS (2011, methodology): “Our two original studies (Thernisien et al. 2006, 2009) restricted much of the discussion to scientific results, giving little space to the details of the model construction and implementation.”
