ICME Structure and Evolution in the Inner Heliosphere
Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections (ICMEs) have been studied for decades using various methods and observational tools; however, their internal structure, transport and evolution in the inner heliosphere remains poorly understood. Similarly, the transport and diffusion of solar energetic particles on their way to 1 AU is surrounded by controversy. This white paper outlines possible next research objectives and a possible multi-spacecraft mission concept (HELIIX) that would provide the measurements to achieve these objectives.
