... Changing Programs & Resolving Problems . ... Several factors first came to mind that might explain what was seen. ... However, such changes cannot also explain the changes seen in the stellar spectra, and again this hypothesis was initially rejected. A drift of the spectrum on the diode array could lead to a decrease in observed flux over time. ... As mentioned previously, a significant change should also lead to a drop in the spectrum at one end relative to the other, and that is not seen. ...

... The concept of continuous solar wind developed in 1950's. First, Biermann (1951, 1957) observed comet tails as they passed close to the Sun , and explained the observed tail deflection by a continuous flux of protons from the Sun. Then Parker (1959) showed that the solar corona must expand, and called the outward streaming coronal gas 'solar wind'. ... The expanding solar wind drags also the solar magnetic field outward, forming what is called the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) . ...
