Scientific paper

The Helios experiment 1 is described, and possible applications to radial solar wind velocity gradient measurements are indicated. This experiment measures ion and electron velocity spectra of the solar wind plasma. The usefulness of line-up of other active interplanetary spacecraft with intact plasma instruments for correlation purposes is discussed. It should be possible to determine the radial gradient of the solar wind azimuthal velocity, the corotation of the solar wind, since the ratio between the bulk velocity and the azimuthal velocity is lower than at the earth's orbit.
