Abstract:<p>The main goal of this work is to separate the behavior of the two types of quiet solar wind at 1 AU: fast and slow.<br>Our approach is a bi-Gaussian distribution function, formed by the addition of two Gaussian distribution functions, where each one represents one type of wind. We check our approach by fitting the bi-Gaussian to data from ACE spacecraft. We use level 2 data measured during solar cycles 23 and 24 of different solar wind parameters, including proton speed, proton t… Show more
