Scientific paper

The paper surveys topics related to the origin, expansion, and acceleration of the solar wind and the plasma physics of the interplanetary medium. The study of the relationship between coronal holes and solar-wind streams, and the associated revision of ideas about solar wind acceleration and heating are reviewed. In addition, topics of hydromagnetic waves and turbulence, and interplanetary electrons, as items of particular importance during the past quadrennium, are discussed. While the research discussed was concerned with data taken near solar minimum, further solar-wind studies will concentrate on observations from the rising and maximum phases of the solar cycle.
