Solar Wind and Interplanetary Magnetic Field Visualization - September 7, 2011 #1747486 (License: Personal Use)

This composite scientific plot presents a polar projection of the inner heliosphere at 00:00 UT on September 7, 2011, with color-coded solar wind proton density (R²N in cm⁻³), IMF polarity (blue = negative, red = positive), and the heliospheric current sheet. Three inset panels show longitudinal cuts (N90-S90), latitudinal slices (W180-E180), and a 3D IMF line representation, all annotated with spacecraft positions and ecliptic coordinates (LAT = 7.23°, LON = E-0.0°, R = 1.0 AU).

Used in space physics and heliophysics research to analyze solar wind structure and spacecraft context during specific solar events; commonly embedded in mission reports, NASA/ESA data portals, or academic publications studying coronal mass ejections or solar cycle 24 conditions.
