A Study of the Relationship between Solar Activity and Interplanetary Field Variations.

Abstract

The origin of large values of the interplanetary magnetic field Bz component, the nature of the so-caled 'driver gas,' the origin of the high speed solar wind streams are the three major issues in solar-terrestrial physics. Several initial attempts are made to study them and find new steps toward a better understanding. Keyword: Geoactive solar conditions.
