Scientific paper

Steady polytropic wind flows are studied by examining their solution topologies. The problem of whether the degeneracy of the continuous and standing shocked solutions in the isothermal case persist in the more general case of a polytropic expanding atmosphere is addressed. The effects of departures from spherical symmetry and nonthermal momentum addition are considered within the context of the new class of magnetospheric models proposed by Low and Tsinganos (1985). The flow near the boundary of a polar coronal hole is considered for the specific case of a magnetosphere in which this boundary asymptotically approaches the equator at large heliocentric distances.
