Scientific paper

Large-scale phenomena in the solar wind are important elements of heliospheric physics and space weather. On the basis of the OMNI database of interplanetary measurements we identified large-scale structures of solar wind (SW types) for all time intervals during 1976-2000. Our classification includes quasi-steady types: (1) Heliospheric current sheet (HCS), (2) Slow and (3) Fast SW streams, respectively, from closed and open magnetic field structures in the solar corona, and disturbed types: (4) Corotating interaction regions (CIR-compressed regions between slow and fast SW streams), (5) SHEATH (compressed regions ahead of MC/EJECTA) and (6) Magnetic cloud (MC) and (7) EJECTA as well as (8) direct and (9) reverse interplanetary shocks (see catalog on site ftp://ftp.iki.rssi.ru/pub/omni/ and paper [1] ). We discuss several preliminary results obtained with our catalog (see more details in http://www.iki.rssi.ru./people/yyermol_inf.html) including effects on the Space Weather.
