Results of λflow for different selections of IMF orientations in terms of ΦGC. Due to the small sample size, especially in the region, a comparatively coarse resolution in ecliptic longitude of Δλ = 4° was chosen for the analysis. The error of λflow corresponds to the stochastic error, while the errorbars in ΦGC illustrate theselected ΦGC range. The data points are displayed at the mean ΦGC value for each range. The red area corresponds to the values where an ideal torus would be detected by PLASTIC neglecting STEREO A’s eigen-velocity.
