Title: On calculating the solar wind parameters from the solar magnetic field data
Abstract: Abstract It is shown that the expansion factor of the solar magnetic field is insufficient to calculate the solar wind velocity. Moreover, the magnetic field structure cannot unambiguously determine the solar wind velocity field in therms of the source surface concept and the potential magnetic field approximation in the corona. It is shown that characteristics relating the solar and near–Earth interplanetary magnetic field undergo cyclic variations.
