How Magnetic Erosion Affects the Drag-Based Kinematics of Fast Coronal Mass Ejections
Abstract In order to advance our understanding of the dynamic interactions between coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and the magnetized solar wind, we investigate the impact of magnetic erosion on the well-known aerodynamic drag force acting on CMEs traveling faster than the ambient solar wind. In particular, we start by generating …
