Open Discussion

Review article: present status and discussion on general sessions

WEDNESDAY 18, MARCH
Morning 09.30-13.00

Open Discussion on Key Questions:

• What are the source regions of SSW? What are their contributions to the mass/energy budgets of SSW?
• What is the role of the magnetic topology in corona for the origin, acceleration and energy deposition of SSW?
• What are the possible mechanisms for the differences in elemental abundances within coronal streamers and the surrounding regions, and their contribution in the abundance variation in the SSW?
• What are the possible acceleration and heating mechanisms for the SSW (such as waves, turbulence, magnetic reconnection, etc.)?
• What are the kinetic processes that lead to preferential ion heating and ion-proton differential streaming in the solar wind plasma?

Afternoon 14.00-17.00
