Learn to Walk Before You Run: A Case for Fundamental CME Research Utilizing Idealized MHD Models
We discuss the importance of fundamental CME research, and the usefulness of idealized MHD models for it. To support such research, we recommend to (1) generally encourage/support fundamental research and simple modeling approaches, (2) establish a new, focused funding opportunity for such research in the field of heliophysics, and (3) foster collaboration with the plasma & stellar communities.
