Time evolution of the components of the magnetic field at 21.5 solar radii (X = −21.5 R_⊙, Y = 0, Z = 0). The top panel corresponds to the flux rope with ζ = 20 in the solar wind background from a minimum of solar activity, while the bottom panel is the case ζ = 2 in the maximum of activity. The dark purple band corresponds to the sheath region, while the purple one is for the magnetic ejecta. The dynamics of the profiles are very similar in the two solar wind configurations: we observed a sheath followed by a magnetic ejecta composed of the flux rope initially inserted.
