Skewness and kurtosis of solar wind proton distribution functions: The normal inverse-Gaussian model and its implications

Open Access

Fig. 3.

Skewed distributions observed at 12:30, 13:00, and 13:10 (19/03/2022) in SW frame. The top panels show the superposition of ten successive f(v_∥) profiles (in s³/km⁶). The averages are shown below in linear and logarithmic scales. The blue lines indicate V_A and the red ones (see text). The lower value of the logarithmic plots is the one count level.
