Scientific paper

The topology of the outer solar corona has been analyzed. In so doing the outer corona was treated as a visible manifestation of the heliospheric current sheet base. A generalization of the recent conception of the flat (galaxy-like) solar corona has been suggested. It is shown that the three-dimensional shape of the outer corona is well fitted by the second-degree surface the hyperbolic paraboloid.
