| Zusammenfassung |
| The propagation of electron temperature fluctuations is numerically
studied using a two-fluid solar wind model. It is found that the
wave propagation is dependent on the electron temperature and its
spatial gradient. These temperature waves can propagate much faster
than ordinary MHD waves. The Fourier analysis of the wave power
suggests that at low frequencies these waves can be strongly
reflected by the solar wind spatial inhomogeneity. The possibility
that such waves can be used to predict energetic coronal events will
be discussed. |
