Multipoint ICME events during the first 1.5 years of combined Solar Orbiter, BepiColombo, Parker Solar Probe, Wind and STEREO-A observations

We show in multipoint situ observations of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) starting with Solar Orbiter operations in April 2020. We demonstrate visualizations of the magnetic field and plasma observations by the 5 spacecraft Solar Orbiter, BepiColombo, Parker Solar Probe, Wind and STEREO-A, in connection with heliospheric imager observations from STEREO-A. We identify ICME events that (1) could be unambiguously followed from their inception on the Sun to their impact at the aforementioned spacecraft, and (2) highlight much sought-after lineup events, which are useful for many different research efforts, e.g. the modeling of ICME flux ropes, their interplanetary evolution and the studies of solar energetic particle events. We catalog all these ICME events for the community at https://www.helioforecast.space/icmecat. The combined data of these missions is already turning out to be a treasure trove for space weather research and is expected to become even more valuable with a increasing number of events expected during the rise of solar cycle 25.
