Scientific paper

An analysis of the dependence of solar wind fluctuations associated with magnetic field, proton density and temperature, and solar wind velocity, on their angular displacement (relative to the interplanetary current sheet), has noted that there exists a narrow latitudinal region during the solar cycle minimum which extends around the current sheet. While latitudinal gradients appear to be negligible for sizes of less than a few million km, the variability of the magnetic field, proton density, and temperature at larger scales clearly increases, moving from high to low latitudes. The existence of interplanetary structures convected by the solar wind is hypothesized.
