Notes. Values obtained from Fig. 3a for γ. These are the mean, median, minimum (Min.), maximum (Max.), and 25%–75% percentiles. The first panel covers the values for the entire solar wind, then the second and third panels cover the values for the solar wind classified between slow and fast wind. As in Fig. 3, the periods are for overall data, by cycle, and by total cycle-independent phases.
