Scientific paper

Possibilities are discussed of a more complete study of hardly observable regions of the interplanetary medium, in the zone of the solar wind formation, where transition from subsonic to supersonic flow occurs at R ⪉ 40 R_sun;. It is shown that an investigation of the fine structure of the extended transonic region of the solar wind and of the sequence of changes in the parameters of the interplanetary plasma in the region of the solar wind formation with the changing distance from the Sun can be effected by using jointly different modifications of the occultation method. Combining two or more modifications of this method means using compact radio sources of different classes and observations in two different wavelength ranges, namely at short centimeter and at meter waves.
