Polar cut (XY plane) of the pressure balance. Simulation without IMF and Pd = 1.2 nPa, isocontour of(a) Pd, (b) Pmag and (c) Pth. Simulation with northward |BIMF| = 100 nT and Pd= 1.2 nPa, isocontour of(e) Pd, (f) Pmag, and (g) Pth. Simulation with northward |BIMF| = 50 nT and Pd= 60 nPa, isocontour of(i) Pd, (j) Pmag, and (k) Pth. Panels d, h, and l show the total pressure (Ptot = Pd + Pmag + Pmag,sw + Pth) normalized to the SW dynamic pressure (isocontour) as well as the isolines of Pd (white line), Pth (green line), Pmag (red line), and Pmag,sw (pink line), including the respective isoline values (colored characters).
