Scientific paper

The SOHO and Spartan spacecraft's UV Coronagraph Spectrometers (UVCSs) have been used to measure H I profiles in polar coronal holes of the sun at 1.5-3.0 solar radii heliocentric distances. The Spartan UVCS also obtained O VI and Mg X. Both sets of measurements indicate that a significant portion of the protons along the line of sight in coronal holes have velocities that are larger than those for a Maxwellian velocity distribution, at the anticipated electron temperature.
