Scientific paper

Different approaches to understanding the physics of solar wind acceleration are reviewed. Particular attention is given to fundamental reasons for a supersonic wind concept; the concept of thermal conduction as the primary energy transport mechanism in the solar wind; coronal holes as the source of wind and alternative acceleration mechanisms; and the state of closure of theory and observation.
