Radial evolution of interaction regionsNear and outside 1 AU, corotating interaction regions bounded by shocks form at the leading edges of high-speed streams. This paper describes the radial evolution of interaction regions, the merging of interaction regions belonging to neighboring streams, and the coalescence of interaction regions belonging to successive solar rotations.
