Scientific paper

Coronal streamer models must now make the transition from research projects to applications tools. SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) will be making measurements on plasma parameters in and around streamers and a quantitative model will be required for interpreting the data. The reason for this is that a streamer is inherently a magnetohydrodynamic phenomenon; its properties are determined both by the magnetic field and the dynamics of the plasma. The purpose of the model will be to analyze the energetics of the streamer and place the results into the context of the magnetic field. Current streamer modeling, and why it has taken so long for these models to develop into useful tools, is described and indications on where further development is needed, are given.
