Deformation of ICMEs/MCs along their path
Original language description
Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) and their subset, magnetic clouds (MCs), are important manifestations of solar activity which have substantial impact on the geomagnetic field. We re-analyze events already identified in Wind and Voyager 2 data and estimate changes of their geometry along the path from the Sun. The analysis is based on the thickness of the sheath between a shock and a particular ICME or MC which is proportional to the apparent curvature radius of ICMEs/MCs. We have found that this apparent radius of curvature increases with the Mach number and this effect is attributed to the larger deformation of the fast ICME/MC. Further, the relative sheath thickness that is proportional to the flux rope oblateness decreases with the magnetic field intensity inside the ICME/MC and increases with the heliospheric distance.
