Title Three-Dimensional Reconstructions of the Solar Wind: During Solar Minimum Conditions
Contributors
Abstract Interplanetary scintillation (IPS) observations provide information about a vast region of the inner heliosphere. We use Solar-Terrestrial Environment Laboratory (STELab) IPS velocity and g-level observations as well as IPS velocity observations from the European Incoherent SCATter (EISCAT) and EISCAT Svalbard Radar (ESR), with our three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction model to determine velocities and densities of the inner heliosphere. We present these observations using various forms of imaging from our time-dependent model that can measure changes with durations of less than a day and compare these with various spacecraft in situ measurements. We concentrate on the current solar-minimum period showing relatively-stable large-scale solar-wind structure during this time in relation to transients that are also sometimes present. Data primarily covers the 2007-2009 International Heliophysical Year (IHY) which includes the Whole Heliosphere Interval (CR2068).
