Fractal dimension of solar wind high speed flows

Extract

The investigation of coronal holes (CH) is in progress now thanks to a number of high precise experimental projects and a lot of observations (Ulysses, SOHO, Yohkoh and many others). Historical epoch of CH discovery and study is prolonged today on the new experimental materials. Our considerations of CH and its manifestations in SW near the Earth were connected with minimum, growth and maximum phases of solar cycle. In this work we deal with the descending phase of solar cycle 23. There was the interval of comparatively quite Sun in March 2004, when strong sporadic phenomena were not observed. The existence of long-lived transequatorial recurrent coronal holes on the solar disk allows the investigation it imprinting in SW flows, using Wind data in near Earth cosmic space, data SOHO, Yohkoh and others.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
