Cuts through the planes y = 0 and z = 0 for comet 67P at 1.5 AU during weakly ionizing solar conditions. Shown in color of panels a, b is the magnetic field magnitude relative to the ambient solar wind value, B0. The vector field in panel b marks the direction and size of the magnetic field. In panels c, d the color shows the solar wind proton number density relative to its ambient value, n0, and the vector fields mark the velocity of the solar wind protons. In panels e, f the cometary water ion number density relative to the ambient solar wind proton number density. The comet nucleus is marked by white crosshairs. The local geometry for each row of panels is shown to the right of the figure.
