Comparison of the observed and modeled polarized brightness of the corona. Top panel: Radially filtered polarized brightness of the solar corona from the limb to the outer edge of the Metis FOV resulting from the Predictive Science Inc. 3D MHD simulations computed to reflect the limb view of Metis. The polarized brightness image was combined with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly on the Solar Dynamics Observatory (Lemen et al. 2012) observations of the 17.1 nm EUV emission. The blue arrow indicates the streamer, the orange arrows show the pseudostreamers, and the red arrows indicate the regions of the wind emanating from the coronal hole extensions (same color code as in Fig. 10). Bottom panel: Magnetic field lines traced on the POS on the basis of the 3D MHD model of the corona.
