Analysis of large scale MHD quantities in expanding magnetic clouds
Magnetic clouds (MCs) transport the magnetic flux and helicity released by the Sun. They are generally modeled as a static flux rope traveling in the solar wind, though they can present signatures of expansion. We analyze three expanding MCs using a self-similar free radial expansion model with a cy...
