The structure of the heliospheric current sheet, 1978 - 1982
Abstract
The structure of the heliospheric magnetic field changes substantially during the 11 year sunspot cycle. Its configuration for the period 1976 through 1982 using a potential field model was calculated. The structure during the rising phase, maximum, and early decline of sunspot cycle 21, from 1978 to 1982 is considered.
