abstract = "We revisit previous studies in which the characteristics of the
solar and interplanetary sources of intense geomagnetic storms
have been discussed. We consider the very intense geomagnetic
storms that occurred during Solar Cycle 23 by setting a value of
Dstmin <= \−200 nT as threshold. We have identified and
characterized the solar and interplanetary sources of each storm.
After this, we investigate the overall characteristics of the
interplanetary (IP) main-phase storm driver, including the time
arrival of the shock/disturbance at 1 AU, the type of associated
IP structure/ejecta, the origin of a prolonged and enhanced
southward component (Bz ) of the IP field, and other
characteristics related to the energy injected into the
magnetosphere during the storm.",
