The Alfvénicity and temperature anisotropy of the solar wind measured by PSP as functions of the Carrington longitude of the source during E11, from 2022 February 21 to March 2. The most probable values of ﹩{C}_{{v}_{p}B}﹩, ﹩{C}_{{v}_{\alpha }B}﹩, T/T of protons and α particles, and θkB are shown in panels (a) and (b). The error bars represent the first and third quartiles for each bin of the Carrington longitude. The heliocentric distance of PSP is shown in panel (c).
