We discuss magnetic reconnection occurring at the boundary between the interplanetary coronal mass ejection sheath and magnetic cloud-like structure (MCL). Multi-spacecraft observations of this event allow us to conclude that such type of reconnection persists more than 50 minutes and the reconnection exhaust can be detected over a distance larger than 130 R-E.
The analysis of the event suggests that the observed velocity of the accelerated flow inside the exhaust decreases with the distance from the reconnection X-line.
