Abstract
When ion-acoustic turbulence is fully developed, Coulomb collision damping and Landau collisionless damping can all be neglected. Since the electric field force is greater than the damping force, a coronal transient can be created by the acceleration caused by the electric field. Eruptive prominence and coronal mass ejection (CME) events can occur as a consequence of this mechanism.
