Schematic reconstruction of the Solar Orbiter crossing in the case that the reverse field region corresponds to a cometary structure that is disconnected from the source and is advected by the solar wind. In this case, the crossing is not along the s/c tangential motion as for a stationary structure, but corresponds to an approximately radial cut. The diagram has same notation as the cartoon in Fig. 3 and magnetic field vectors are the same BT and BR projections as in panel h of the same figure. We note that in the case of a radial crossing, region D is located upstream of the cometary obstacle
