The Width of Magnetic Ejecta Measured near 1 au: Lessons from STEREO-A Measurements in 2021–2022

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are large-scale eruptions with a typical radial size at 1 au of 0.21 au but their angular width in interplanetary space is still mostly unknown, especially for the magnetic ejecta (ME) part of the CME. We take advantage of STEREO-A angular separation of 20°–60° from the...
