The International Heliospheric Study; Proceedings of Symposium 10 of the 27th COSPAR Plenary Meeting, Espoo, Finland, July 18-29, 1988

The conference presents papers on solar phenomena, coronal mass ejections, solar wind, heliospheric magnetic field, energetic particles, cosmic rays, and interaction with the interstellar medium. Topics include the NASA heliospheric program, Alfven wave heating of the solar atmosphere in the transition region, IPS imaging of heliospheric transients, CME associated forward-reverse shock pairs, and solar wind latitude/longitude variations from interplanetary scintillations. Consideration is also given to cosmic ray gradients in the heliosphere, reconnection at the heliopause, and the interaction of the solar wind with the local interstellar medium.
