Fig. 1

Solar wind data obtained by the Wind spacecraft on February 11, 2007. From the top, a magnetic field, b ion density, c solar wind bulk speed (black) and Alfvén speed (blue), d ion velocity, e Alfvén Mach number, and f dynamic pressure are plotted. The GSM coordinate system is used for the magnetic field, velocity, and spacecraft locations
