A summary of WIND magnetic clouds for years 1995-2003: model-fitted parameters, associated errors and classifications (2006, methodology): “…of these models obtained a better fit of the field intensity in a MC/flux rope than the Lepping et al. (1990) model; for other recent MC/flux rope models see Hu and Sonnerup (2001, 2002); Hidalgo et al. (2002); Hidalgo (2003); Li et al. (2001); Mulligan et al. (1999); and Vandas et al. (2005a, b).”
Fitting Flux Ropes to a Global MHD Solution: A Comparison of Techniques. Appendix 1 (2004, methodology): “…of the magnetopause (Sonnerup and Guo, 1996; Hau and Sonnerup, 1999; Hu and Sonnerup, 2000), and subsequently applied to flux rope observations (Hu and Sonnerup, 2001, 2002; Hu et al., 2003), the Grad–Shafranov reconstruction (GSR) technique makes two basic assumptions: (1) that the structure…”
THE DEFLECTION OF THE TWO INTERACTING CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS OF 2010 MAY 23–24 AS REVEALED BY COMBINED IN SITU MEASUREMENTS AND HELIOSPHERIC IMAGING (2012, methodology): “Grad-Shafranov reconstruction (Hu & Sonnerup 2001; Möstl et al. 2009) was also performed, and it also yields a single, left-handed ejecta, with an axis making an angle of 10◦ with respect to the −z direction with a small impact parameter of 0.1 relative to the radial size of the flux rope.”
