“…Over the years observations of the behavior of energetic-particles fluxes and anisotropies, the electron strahl, the proton plasma, the proton bulk flow, and the alpha-to-proton ion composition have led to a picture of the magnetic structure where the current sheets partition the field into filaments or a spaghetti of magnetic flux tubes (Bartley et al, 1966;McCracken and Ness, 1966;Michel, 1967;Bruno et al, 2001;Borovsky, 2008;Greco et al, 2008;Riazantseva et al, 2017;Pecora et al, 2019). There are, however, other depictions of the magnetic structure of the solar wind, for instance an admixture of flux tubes, plasmoids, magnetic islands, and localized magnetic structures (e.g., Khaborova et al, 2015;Khaborova et al, 2016;Adhikari et al, 2019;Malandraki et al, 2019;Khaborova et al, 2020), which is well depicted in Figure 24C of the review Khabarova et al (2021). Certainly, it is well known that closed-field plasma blobs can be found in solar-wind plasma originating from coronal streamer stalks (Wang et al, 1999;Sheeley and Rouillard, 2010;Viall et al, 2010;Viall and Vourlidas, 2015;Kepko et al, 2016;Di Matteo et al, 2019).…”
