Scientific paper

The presence of additional plasma streams with enhanced density in bright rays of the solar coronal-streamer belt is demonstrated. The streams have steep fronts, whose widths δ≈0.10R &sun; (where R &sun; is the solar radius) are comparable to the spatial resolution of the LASCO C3 instrument of the SOHO satellite. The additional streams are similar to streams of the slow, quasi-steady solar wind in the streamer belt in terms of their plasma density, directional velocity, and lifetime and are apparently one of the main sources of the slow solar wind.
