It is shown that the interplanetary magnetic field has different characteristics on different scales, and it is noted that a given physical theory may not be applicable or relevant on all scales. Four scales are defined in terms of time intervals on which the data may be viewed. Many discontinuities

Measurements of the north-south (Bz) component of the interplanetary field as compiled by King (1975) when organized into yearly histograms of the values of IBz[ reveal the following. (1) The histograms decrease exponentially from a maximum occurrence frequency at the value IBz I = 0. (2) The slope
A statistical study is made of the long term variations of the interplanetary magnetic field parameters collected in the years 1964 to 1973 by 12 spacecraft (IMP's, Pioneers and HEOS). Although temporal fluctuations are observed on field components and magnitudes no clear solar cycle variation is fo
