Solar Wind
Scientific paper
The sun possesses the hot corona of which the temperature exceeds 1 million K above the cooler photosphere with temperature of about 6,000K, and the hot solar wind streams out from there. Although it has been pointed out that magnetic field plays an important role in the formation of the corona and solar wind, it has not been solved how in the reality the coronal heating and solar wind acceleration are accomplished. By using numerical simulation, we have shown that the coronal heating and solar wind acceleration are natural consequence of the footpoint fluctuations of the magnetic field lines which originate from the surface convective layer. We also discuss an origin of the variety of solar winds and disappearance of solar winds.
