Global view of the magnetic field structures within the interaction region. The upper panel provides a line integral convolution of the in-plane magnetic field component, coupled to its colour-coded amplitude. The lower panel shows the same LIC representation, coupled to the cometary ion density along the comet tail. In the lower panel, lower-right corner, the horizontal line length corresponds to 100 di.
