摘要:

研究了2006-2009年太阳活动低周期间(23 - 24周)慢(< 450 km/s)太阳风的特征和来源。我们使用一套全面的近地太阳风(风和ACE)的原位观测,并删除大规模行星际日冕物质抛射存在的时期。在所调查的这段时期,全球日冕结构发生了重大变化,包括2006-2007年低纬度活动区频繁出现,2006 -2008年中期存在长期存在的低纬度和中纬度冕洞,2009年太阳基本平静。我们研究卡林顿旋转平均选定的太阳等离子体,电荷状态和成分参数和这些参数的分布相关的安静的太阳,活动区太阳和冕洞太阳。虽然一些研究的参数(例如,速度、C^{+6}/C^{+4}和He/H比)在我们的研究期间显示出明显的变化,而对于太阳风源类型,某些(Fe/O)表现出很小的变化。我们的研究结果突出的困难,在区分缓慢的太阳风源的基础上检查的太阳风的条件。

英文摘要:

We investigate the characteristics and the sources of the slow (< 450 km/s) solar wind during the four years (2006-2009) of low solar activity between Solar Cycles 23 and 24. We use a comprehensive set of in-situ observations in the near-Earth solar wind (Wind and ACE) and remove the periods when large-scale interplanetary coronal mass ejections were present. The investigated period features significant variations in the global coronal structure, including the frequent presence of low-latitude active regions in 2006-2007, long-lived low- and mid-latitude coronal holes in 2006 - mid-2008 and mostly the quiet Sun in 2009. We examine both Carrington Rotation averages of selected solar plasma, charge state and compositional parameters and distributions of these parameters related to Quiet Sun, Active Region Sun and the Coronal Hole Sun. While some of the investigated parameters (e.g., speed, the C^{+6}/C^{+4} and He/H ratio) show clear variations over our study period and with solar wind source type, some (Fe/O) exhibit very little changes. Our results highlight the difficulty in distinguishing between the slow solar wind sources based on the inspection of the solar wind conditions.
