Contributed Papers to the Study of Travelling Interplanetary Phenomena/ 1977. (Proceedings of COSPAR Symposium B, Tel Aviv, Israel, June 1977)

Abstract

These papers span the entire range of multi-disciplinary studies of transients propagating from the sun through the interplanetary medium and represent a current assessment of theoretical studies and analyses, computer simulation, and in situ measurements of these phenomena. This includes solar phenomena as the source of transient events propagating through the solar system, and theoretical and observational assessments of the dynamic processes involved as these transients propagate through the interplanetary medium. The subjects covered are solar physics, solar radio astronomy, interplanetary scintillation measurements, cometary studies, direct spacecraft observations from Venera 9, Venera 10, Helios 1 and Helios 2, energetic particle propagation in the interplanetary medium and shock-particle interactions. Also included are reports on coronal hole and solar wind studies during STIP Interval I (september-October 1975) and the dynamic solar-Terrestrial events that occurred during STIP Interval II (15 March-15 May 1976).
