Comparison of magnetic field and density with ratios of values inside/outside switchbacks. The black vertical and horizontal lines split the values into four quadrants. Quadrants (1) and (3) correspond to structures in which fluctuations are positively correlated, and quadrants (2) and (4) correspond to anticorrelated fluctuations. We consider the structures that are located between the two vertical dashed lines to be Alfvénic.
