Collisionless transport equations derived from a kinetic exospheric solar wind model with kappa velocity distribution functions
Gabriel Voitcu, Viviane Pierrard, Herve Lamy +2
In this paper we discuss the collisionless transport equations, continuity, momentum and energy conservation, derived from a kinetic exospheric model of the solar wind based on a k…

A review on solar wind modeling: kinetic and fluid aspects
Marius Echim, Joseph Lemaire, Oystein Lie-Svendsen
We review the main advantages and limitations of the kinetic exospheric and fluid models of the solar wind (SW). We discuss the hydrostatic model imagined by Chapman, the first sup…
