Scientific paper

The scientific payload of the two INTERBALL satellites is described from the standpoint of solar wind investigations, with emphasis on the disturbances in the solar wind flow on differential spatial scales. Consideration is given to the correlation of the plasma and magnetic field data measured by these spacecraft on a temporal scale ranging from minutes to days. Good correlation of the ion density changes during a period of 2 d is shown. It is also demonstrated that the quiescent solar wind can contain many inhomogenities of different shapes. The hypothesis that the foreshock region is highly turbulent and consists of clouds of enhanced plasma density moving with the solar wind velocity is confirmed.
