In Parker's original model, the solar wind is represented as a spherically symmetric hydrodynamic flow. The velocity is radially directed and decoupled from the magnetic field. The simple extension of this model to include a dependence on the polar angle, 0, is shown to be invalid for radial flow an
The three-dimensional structure of the solar magnetic field in the interplanetary space is inferred from a theoretical point of view. We use the magnetic field produced by a magnetic dipole rotating obliquely in vacuum. The correction for the presence of a plasma surrounding the Sun is taken into ac
