An approximate analytic solution to the coupled problems of coronal heating and solar-wind acceleration

Chandran, Benjamin D. G.

Between the base of the solar corona at $r=r_\textrm {b}$ and the Alfvén critical point at $r=r_\textrm {A}$, where $r$ is heliocentric distance, the solar-wind density decreases by a factor $ \mathop > \limits_∼ 10^5$, but the plasma temperature varies by a factor of only a few. In this paper, I show that such quasi-isothermal evolution out to…
