Solar wind in the near-Earth interplanetary space: 1964–1987 revisited

Abstract

Solar-wind data, as obtained in the near-Earth space, have been re-examined for the period 1964 to 1987. For each month, the maximum and minimum hourly values of the solar-wind bulk speed together with those for the interplanetary magnetic-field intensity have been selected. They are reported in a tabular form (available as readable ASCII text files on DOS-formatted floppy disks) to ease off further studies in the framework of the Solar-Terrestrial System.
