Caption

This raw image is a composite of three different wavelengths, resulting in the colored image A (ORB4369_6) in the northern hemisphere with a clear visible wave packet. Panel (b) shows the same image after being processed and cylindrical projected using OMEGA-Py at a wavelength of 0.5 μμm. Panle (c) shows a diagram of the morphological proprieties measured on the wave packets. The blue, pink and yellow colored lines represent how the horizontal wavelength (λ), packet width and packet length are measured, respectively. The angle (θ) is the orientation of the wave packet relative to the parallel.
