Snapshots of the evolution of a normal CME with an initial velocity of 400 km s−1 ejected in a low density wind, 1.5 h after ejection in the top left panel, 4.5 h in the top right panel, and 7.5 h and 11 h in the bottom left and right panels, respectively. The colours correspond to the coloured contours of the plasma velocity, the black lines represent selected magnetic field lines, and the red circle represents the edge of the magnetic cloud (i.e. the separatrix).
