Solar Wind, Magnetic Clouds: Topology
Scientific paper
We present an extension of a previous model for the topology of magnetic clouds which takes into account their interaction with the solar wind. The main consequence of this interaction is the possible distortion of their cross-section, that need no longer be circular during the propagation from the Sun to 1AU. The first approach to this deformation is to assume an elliptical geometry for the cross section although we consider a cylindrical shape for the clouds. To illustrate the model we present the fitting of three selected clouds with different magnetic field profiles. We show that the fits, which have eight free parameters, are indeed good.
