The launch of new spacecraft such as Parker Solar Probe or Solar Orbiter allow us to measure in-situ at different radial distances the physical magnitudes of ICMEs. With that, we are able to quantify the evolution of ICMEs and their substructures at a specific radial distance in order to better understand the interaction processes that occur with the background solar wind.
Using multiple spacecraft covering the inner heliosphere, we extract plasma and magnetic field parameters from several ICMEs to relate the physical processes responsible for the formation of the different substructures. We present ICME case studies that prepare for a large statistical analysis.
