โœฆ Synopsis

It is shown that coronal holes may be used as indicators to trace the location of the neutral line on the source surface in the corona. At the same time, coronal holes are shown to concentrate in regions of enhanced magnetic field at the source surface. This provides us with a simple method for predicting the interplanetary current sheet and sector structure which, in turn, determine the location of the proton complexes and the outflow regions of high-velocity streams. Rotation of coronal holes has been studied. Rather than being rigid, it displays the same reduced differentiallity as the rest of the corona. However, there are particular periods 2 or 3 years before the cycle minimum when the solid-body type of rotation is settled for both the coronal holes and the corona as a whole.

We consider proposed mechanisms for the formation of coronal holes, and identify as crucial the issue whether the holes are permeated by rigidly rotating fields. It is suggested that the interaction between such a field and the differentially rotating, diffusive solar envelope will produce a fore af

A study is made of the rotation of large-scale magnetic fields using the synoptic maps from the Kitt Peak National Observatory for the time interval 1976-1985. The auto-correlation method and the mass-centers method of magnetic structures was applied to infer mean differential rotation profiles and
