Characterizing the Impact of Alfvén Wave Forcing in Interplanetary Space on the Distribution of Near-Earth Solar Wind Speeds

Broadly, solar wind source regions can be classified by their magnetic topology as intermittently and continuously open to the heliosphere. Early models of solar wind acceleration do not account for the fastest, nontransient solar wind speeds observed near-Earth, and energy must be deposited into th...
