Scientific paper

A superposed epoch analysis was used to examine the variation in solar wind properties, observed in 1974 in a heliomagnetic coordinate system tilted with respect to the solar equator. A tilt of 30 deg + or - 10 deg was found to produce the best organization of these properties in such a coordinate system. The solar wind speed increased with heliomagnetic latitude, while the proton density and the proton flux density decreased. The variations are qualitatively consistent with those inferred from coronal hole and other interplanetary observations.
