Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-14582-3, published online 30 June 2022
In the original version of this Article, Y. Kuramitsu was omitted as a corresponding author. Correspondence and requests for materials should also be addressed to kuramitsu@eei.eng.osaka-u.ac.jp.
In addition, the original version of this Article contained errors in the main text.
“The estimates use fits to the CTS spectra to infer ionization states of +1 for proton and +3 for carbon, typical flow velocities of 100 km/s, the electron temperature of 10 eV, and the ion temperature of 50 eV, the initial-at-target magnetic field of 3 kG, and the lowest electron density of \(\text{e}17\,{\mathrm{cm}}^{-3}\).”
now reads:

And,
\(r_{ge} \sim 36\,\upmu {\text{m}}\) and \(\sigma_{e} \sim 0.22\) for electron, \(r_{gp} \sim 4.9\,{\text{mm}}\) and \(\sigma_ {p} \sim 8.7e - 2\) for proton, and \(r_{gc} \,14\,\,{\text{mm}}\) and \(\sigma_{ c} \sim 1.3e - 2\) for carbon.
now reads:
