Scientific paper

This paper examines the non-radial components of solar wind flow. The standard deviation of the east-west flow shows a clear solar cycle dependence which persists into the outer heliosphere. The magnitude of the east-west flow as observed by Voyager 2 may also vary with solar cycle. The standard deviation in the east-west flow angle decreases with radial distance out to 20 AU, then remains roughly constant. This mimics the behavior of the radial velocity standard deviations, suggesting that the east-west flows are generated mainly by velocity changes in the solar wind. The north-south flow angles observed by Voyager suggest that an anti-equatorial meridional flow is present.
