Recent studies show that the cone model with a circular cross section can be used to determine the geometrical and kinematical properties only for a class of halo CMEs with the semi-minor axis of the elliptic halo threading the solar disk center. This work shows how to use an improved cone model with an elliptic cross section to determine the geometrical and kinematical properties for another class of halo CMEs with the semi-major axis threading the solar disk center.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
