Can I read Coupling between high and low latitudes as observed with LASCO in the solar corona and in interplanetary space on EtoBox?
Coupling between high and low latitudes as observed with LASCO in the solar corona and in interplanetary space by R. Schwenn is a Physics and Astronomy article available to read on EtoBox.
What is Coupling between high and low latitudes as observed with LASCO in the solar corona and in interplanetary space about?
From Skylab, Helios and Ulysses observations we had learnt already how closely the 3D heliosphere is related to the underlying coronal structure. Around solar activity minimum, large polar coronal holes dominate the major part of the heliosphere, through the high-speed solar wind streams emanating from them. A different type of solar wind is restricted to a narrow nearequatorial belt (about 30 degrees in latitude). The magnetic topology is dominated by strong multipole components and multiple current sheets in the upper corona, and by a large-scale dipole field further outside, respectively. New observations by LASCO on SOHO cover both regions and may reveal clues to the processes responsible for the generation of the different types of solar wind.
