Coronal Field Geometry and Solar Wind Speed
The Wang–Sheeley–Arge (WSA) solar wind (SW) model is based on the idea that weakly expanding coronal magnetic field tubes are associated with sources of fast SWs and vice versa. A parameter called the “flux tube expansion” (FTE) is used to determine the degree of expansion of magnetic tubes. The FTE...
