Abstract: We identify, categorize, and analyze 77 interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) observed in situ by Solar Orbiter between April 2020 and April 2024. For 28 of these events, we reliably associate their solar sources observed in remote white-light coronagraphs by applying a drag-based back-propagation model. In most of these associated cases, we further identify corresponding low-coronal signatures using observations from SDO/AIA, STEREO-A/EUVI, and/or Solar Orbiter/EUI. We perform a statistical analysis of the ICME properties and compare our results with previous studies conducted at 1 au and at smaller heliocentric distances. Our findings largely confirm previously reported ICME characteristics, while also providing new insights into the evolution of ICME sheaths. The compiled event list offers a valuable reference for future CME–ICME studies utilizing Solar Orbiter observations.
