Orbital speed |v| and the transverse speed relative to solar wind plasma along the orbits of the comet Ikeya–Seki (upper panel) and of Aquarids (lower panel). χ is the true anomaly angle. Near the aphelium of each orbit , meaning that the value of there is determined by the transverse speed of the solar wind rather than by the orbital velocity.
