Intermingled Open and Closed Magnetic Field Lines near the Radial Origin of the Heliospheric Current Sheet

On 2024 March 30, the Parker Solar Probe crossed the heliospheric current sheet at 13 solar radii while encountering two distinctly different regions at sharp boundaries on several occasions. The two regions had very different plasma densities, electric-field spectra, and magnetic-field geometries....
