Pseudocolor plots of the plasma number density (left, Log color scale) and radial speed (right, linear color scale) on the ecliptic plane as obtained with RIMAP from the March 2009 in situ observations. In the flow below r ~ 50 R_⊙ it is possible to notice some deviations: this could be due to inaccuracies in the interpolation carried out by the visualization software between the spherical grid of RIMAP and the Cartesian one of the image.
