AI 中文摘要

行星际日冕物质抛射(ICMEs)是引发日球层扰动与空间天气效应的主要驱动因素。本文开展了一项多航天器研究,研究对象为分布在大范围日心距离上的96个磁云(MCs),并采用均匀扭缠的Gold--Hoyle(GH)通量绳模型重构其内部磁场结构。通过拟合,我们推导得到轴向场强$B_0$、扭缠密度(匝数密度)$τ$、GH参数$ω$以及积分扭缠数$n$。研究发现,$B_0$与匝数密度$τ$均随日心距离增大而减小,这与传播过程中的膨胀和轴向拉伸效应一致。一项关键结果是,$τ$--$R$平面中的上包络对应于无量纲GH参数$ω=2πRτ$的近似恒定边界,其值接近$ω\thicksim2$。因此,推断得到的$τ$上限值并非与尺度无关,而是对于给定的通量绳半径遵循$τ_{\text{max}}\backsimeq ω_{\text{max}}/(2πR)$的关系。相比之下,在当前样本中,估算得到的积分匝数$n$未表现出类似清晰的径向分布规律。本研究探究了0.07至5.4 AU日心距离范围内的ICME结构与磁场特征,从而为行星际磁通量绳的大尺度演化提供了观测约束。

英文摘要

Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) are major drivers of heliospheric disturbances and space-weather effects. Here we present a multi-spacecraft study of 96 magnetic clouds (MCs) distributed over a broad range of heliocentric distances, and reconstruct their internal magnetic structure with a uniform-twist Gold--Hoyle (GH) flux-rope model. From the fits, we derive the axial field strength $B_0$, the twist density (turn density) $τ$, the GH parameter $ω$, and the integrated twist number $n$. We find that $B_0$ and the turn density $τ$ both decrease with increasing heliocentric distance, consistent with expansion and axial stretching during propagation. A key result is that the upper envelope in the $τ$--$R$ plane corresponds to a nearly constant boundary in the dimensionless GH parameter $ω=2πRτ$, close to $ω\sim2$. Therefore, the inferred upper value of $τ$ is not scale-independent, but follows $τ_{\max}\simeq ω_{\max}/(2πR)$ for a given flux-rope radius. In contrast, the estimated integrated turn number $n$ shows no similarly clear radial organization in the present sample. This study investigates the ICME structure and magnetic field characteristics across heliocentric distances from 0.07 to 5.4~AU, thereby providing observational constraints on the large-scale evolution of interplanetary magnetic flux ropes.
