Cone angle control of the interaction of magnetic clouds with the Earth's bow shock

Abstract We study the interaction of magnetic clouds (MCs) with the near‐Earth environment. Recent works suggest that the bow shock crossing may modify significantly the magnetic structure of an MC, and thus its ability to drive geomagnetic storms. This change is largely controlled by the bow shock...
