Fig. 7

Validation of TFA using MHD simulations. a The simulated soft X-ray image ’observed’ by SMILE; b the reconstructed magnetopause; c 2D views of the reconstructed magnetopause are in red curves, along with the original MHD boundary in white curves. Contours show plasma thermal pressure in planes rotating around the x-axis by 0\(^\circ \), 30\(^\circ \), 60 \(^\circ \), and 90 \(^\circ \), respectively, with 0\(^\circ \) indicating the equatorial plane (Figure adapted from Sun et al. (2020))
