Scientific paper

The genesis of high speed solar wind streams, causing recurrent geomagnetic storms, in coronal holes, i.e., low density, low temperature regions in the corona, where the large scale magnetic field opens up into interplanetary space is reviewed. The basic physics of the solar wind emanating from coronal holes are discussed. It is shown that thermally driven solar wind models cannot explain the high flow speeds. The effect of MHD waves on the solar wind and wind from late-type giants and supergiants is also discussed.
