| Zusammenfassung |
Co-rotating interaction regions (CIRs)
between fast and slow streams of plasma are a prominent feature of the solar
wind. Measurements of interplanetary scintillation (IPS) using the three widely
separated antennas of the EISCAT facility have been used to detect the
compression regions at the leading edges of interaction regions and to determine
the location and velocity of the structure. Observations show that interaction
regions have developed as close to the Sun as 25–30 solar radii, a result
supported by theoretical modelling which shows that the conditions needed for
CIRs to develop exist inside 30 solar radii.
