The solar origins of solar wind interstream flows: Near‐equatorial coronal streamers

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1981
Vela heavy ion and IMP solar wind data are used to identify the coronal origins of the interstream, low‐speed solar wind as well as to understand the causes of the long‐term trends in solar wind densities and electron temperatures observed at 1 AU. Several lines of evidence suggest a strong association between interstream flows and the extensions of ...

The origin of the slow solar wind in coronal streamers

Advances in Space Research, 2004
Abstract The highly variable slow solar wind has been associated with low-latitude regions of the heliosphere most clearly by the Ulysses spacecraft. Although, it is evident today that the slow solar wind originates in coronal helmet streamers, the mechanism of the slow solar wind acceleration, and the origin of the variability are still being ...

Solar coronal streamers

Solar Physics, 1970
A unique combination of photographic and K-coronameter data were used to study the structure and evolution of two known coronal streamers. In addition, two other K-coronameter enhancements were studied as representing ideal second examples of the known streamers.

Formation of the slow solar wind in a coronal streamer

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 1999
We have investigated a magnetohydrodynamic mechanism that accounts for several fundamental properties of the slow solar wind, in particular its variability, latitudinal extent, and bulk acceleration. In view of the well‐established association between the streamer belt and the slow wind, our model begins with a simplified representation of a streamer ...
