Resumen:
There are numerous unanswered questions concerning the origin, nature, evolution and consequences of coronal mass ejections at the Sun and in the interplanetary medium. STEREO will provide the first 3-D view of the Sun-Earth system and Solar-B will provide unprecedented measurements of the magnetic field structure of their photospheric source regions. The two NASA missions, scheduled for launch in 2006, will hence provide us with a new view of CMEs. In order to establish the scientific goals of these missions, this talk will provide: - A brief summary of our current understanding of the origin and evolution of CMEs based on the latest results obtained from SOHO, Yohkoh, TRACE, ACE and Wind observations. - A basic scheme explaining the 3-D structure and near-Sun evolution of CMEs that can be directly proven with STEREO and Solar-B. - An outline for joint science operations required to test existing models for the onset and evolution of CMEs up to Earth's orbit.
