Fig. 3.From: The interaction between the Moon and the solar windThe magnetic field magnitude, and components in different planes, for different upstream IMF conditions. Arrows show the direction of the IMF. Top three rows show magnetic field magnitude for different upstream IMF directions. Then the magnetic field x-component for an IMF perpendicular to and opposite the solar wind flow is shown on row 4 and 5. Similarly, the y-component is shown on row 6 and 7, and the z-component on row 8 and 9. The geometry of the cuts in the different columns are the same as in Fig. 2. The colorbar is for the row immediately to the left, and for all following rows, until the next colorbar.Back to article page
