摘要:

磁云(Magnetic clouds,MC)是日球层中从太阳进入行星际介质的大尺度行星际瞬态结构。MC内部的内部磁场线扭曲,形成磁通绳(FR)。这种磁场结构是由它的初始太阳配置,从太阳喷发过程中所涉及的过程,并在其与周围的太阳风相互作用的动态演变。MC内部磁结构的最重要的特性之一是形成FR(每单位长度的匝数)的场线的扭曲。扭转的详细内部分布是有争议的,主要是因为在MC中的磁场(B)只沿航天器的轨道,因此,有必要完成与理论假设的观测。从单个事件的研究中估计扭曲是困难的,因为场波动显著增加了观测到的B时间序列的噪声,从而增加了推导出的扭曲的偏差。应用于MC的叠加时代已被证明是一种强大的技术,允许提取它们的共同特征,并消除个别情况下的特殊性。我们采用叠加历元技术分析的磁性成分在当地FR框架的一个显着的样本适度不对称MC在1 AU观察。从FR系中B分量的叠加轮廓,我们确定了MC中的典型扭转分布。在FR核心(中心半部分)中,扭曲几乎是均匀的,并且朝着MC边界适度增加,最多增加到2倍。此配置文件是接近的伦德奎斯特场模型限于FR核心的轴向场分量是高于其中心值的约三分之一。

英文摘要:

Magnetic clouds (MCs) are large-scale interplanetary transient structures in the heliosphere that travel from the Sun into the interplanetary medium. The internal magnetic field lines inside the MCs are twisted, forming a flux rope (FR). This magnetic field structuring is determined by its initial solar configuration, by the processes involved during its eruption from the Sun, and by the dynamical evolution during its interaction with the ambient solar wind. One of the most important properties of the magnetic structure inside MCs is the twist of the field lines forming the FR (the number of turns per unit length). The detailed internal distribution of twist is under debate mainly because the magnetic field (B) in MCs is observed only along the spacecraft trajectory, and thus it is necessary to complete observations with theoretical assumptions. Estimating the twist from the study of a single event is difficult because the field fluctuations significantly increase the noise of the observed B time series and thus the bias of the deduced twist. The superposed epoch applied to MCs has proven to be a powerful technique, permitting the extraction of their common features, and removing the peculiarity of individual cases. We apply a superposed epoch technique to analyse the magnetic components in the local FR frame of a significant sample of moderately asymmetric MCs observed at 1 au. From the superposed profile of B components in the FR frame, we determine the typical twist distribution in MCs. The twist is nearly uniform in the FR core (central half part), and it increases moderately, up to a factor two, towards the MC boundaries. This profile is close to the Lundquist field model limited to the FR core where the axial field component is above about one-third of its central value.
