Scientific paper

Using the photospheric magnetic fields measured at the Wilcox Solar Observatory as the input to the Bogdan and Low magnetostatic atmosphere model, the large scale magnetic field and plasma properties above the solar surface can be calculated. The calculated electron structures generally match the HAO (High Altitude Observatory) synoptic charts of the white light corona near solar minimum. The calculated magnetic configurations maintain a basically potential field configuration. It is planned to test how well the model can predict the magnetic field and plasma properties in coronal holes and corona streamers on the basis of the expected high quality SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) observations of the photospheric field and plasma properties.
