Approximate areas in the parameter space where the χ2 values are within one of the minimum value for respective ecliptic longitudes λi, i.e., the acceptable regions for the values of the inflow parameters and density of the Warm Breeze, shown in two-dimensional cuts as a function of ecliptic longitude of the inflow direction. The absolute minimum is marked with the red dot. The blue dots mark the minima in χ2 calculated for the other assumed λi values. The vertical bars mark the region within 1 of . The parameters shown are inflow velocity (upper left panel), temperature (upper right), inflow latitude (lower left), and density relative to NIS He density (lower right). Note the vertical scale for temperature is logarithmic.
