✦ Synopsis

The two-fluid equations for the solar wind are written down in a simplified form, similar to that suggested by Roberts (1971) for the one-fluid model. The equations are shown to depend only on one parameter,

where G is the gravitational constant, M the mass of the star, xe the thermal electron conductivity, my the proton mass, k the Boltzman constant, ke~To the residual energy per particle at infinity and Fe the electron-particle flux. For a variety of values of the density and temperature at the base of the corona we compute the solutions of the two-fluid solar wind model and compare the predicted and observed solar wind parameters at the Earth.

Observational line width evidence for a possible discrepancy between ion and electron temperature in the corona is reviewed for comparison with the conclusions of Knight et al. We note that the high line-width temperatures extend much higher in the corona than the high ion temperatures computed by K
