Scientific paper

Nineteen high-speed solar-wind streams observed at 1 AU between March 1971 and July 1974 are studied to develop a more realistic set of constraints for theories on such streams. The streams were chosen because their speeds exceeded 650 km/s for at least several consecutive three-hour periods and because their properties met certain other criteria. A comparison of average stream parameters with predictions of existing steady-state models shows that no single model is adequate to explain the observations. In particular, it is found that no existing model consistent with reasonable coronal conditions predicts the particle fluxes, the convected proton bulk-flow-energy fluxes, and the convected proton enthalpy fluxes observed at 1 AU when the flow speed exceeds 650 km/s.
