Fig. 5.

The electric field magnitude, and the three components in different planes, for an IMF that is perpendicular to the solar wind flow direction. Arrows show the direction of the IMF. For the magnitude and z-component, the solar wind convective electric field, Esw = −usw × Bsw, has been subtracted. The cuts in the different columns are the same as in Figs. 2 and 3.
