Solar Wind

  • 1.3e36 particles per second, presumed monatomic hydrogen

    • WP ref

    • Area at 1 AU = 4π ( 150e9m )² = 2.8e23 m², hence flux = 1.3e36 H/s / 2.8e23 m² ≅ 5e12 H/(m²-s)
    • Hydrogen mass 1.67e-27 kg, mass flux - 8e-15 kg/(m²-s)
  • slow wind 300–500 km/s, temperature ~1e5 K, twice as dense → 5e-15 kg/(m²-s)
  • fast wind 750 km/s, temperature ~8e5 K, half as dense → 3e-15 kg/(m²-s)
