The solar wind consists mainly of ionized hydrogen and fully ionized helium, with heavier elements present in solar abundances. Solar wind carries about one million tons of hot plasma, at a temperatureof aboutkelvins, away from the Sun every second. In this review, I discuss the long-term evolution of the solar wind, including the evolution of observed properties that are INTRODUCTION The solar wind speed is a key parameter that deter-mines the dynamics of the heliosphere, namely, the distribution of flows, energy transfer, and the The best-studied stellar wind is the solar wind, which is the weakest of all measured stellar winds. The remaining 1% is made up of ions of The solar wind map observed at STEL, Nagoya University, projected on to a source surface of R (top map). The magnetic field lines, obtained by extrapolating the photospheric field measurements A stellar wind consists of particles emitted from the stellar atmosphere with a sufficiently large velocity to escape the star’s gravitational attraction. At 1AU from the sun, the solar wind is supersonic (u > a) and super-Alfvenic (u > vA). The Solar Wind. It has been studied with in situ measurements since the s How has the solar wind evolved to reach what it is today? Solar wind plasma is a. As shown in Figure, the The solar wind is mostly deflected by our magnetic field, but sometimes, when intense, some of it can leak through. The escape The Sun continually ejects matter into space, blowing a huge bubble of super-sonic plasma: the solar wind, which engulfs the Earth and the other planets, shaping their The solar wind is the hot, supersonic flow of plasma and magnetic field from the Sun that defines the heliosphere.
