Coronal mass ejections and their sheath regions in interplanetary space

E Kilpua, HEJ Koskinen, TI Pulkkinen - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2017 - Springer
Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) are large-scale heliospheric transients that
originate from the Sun. When an ICME is sufficiently faster than the preceding solar wind, a …

The evolution of the solar wind
