Abstract
The reciprocal influence of the electrons and protons, on one side, and the α-particles, on the other side in the quiet solar wind is investigated within the framework of a conductive three-fluid model (with frictional forces included). For this purpose two mathematical methods are used, namely: I. Simultaneous solution of the fluid equations for all three species; and II. Solution of two-fluid equations (for electrons and protons) followed by that of a ‘modified’ one-fluid equation for the α-particles (in which the two-fluid solutions are used for electrons and protons).
