Scientific paper

A perturbation expansion of the global (not limited to the equatorial plane) equations of motions is described for the case of hydrodynamic flow, beyond the critical point, of a polytropic single fluid. A global model for the interaction between high- and low-speed streams in the solar wind is then developed, assuming nearly radial flow in the solar wind. It is shown that the disappearance of streams above 40 deg N is not necessary to explain a weakening of stream interactions and thus the disappearance of scintillations at high solar latitudes.
