On the Kinetic Nature of Solar Wind Discontinuities
Abstract The most intense currents in the solar wind are carried by magnetic field discontinuities. The formation of such structures depends on whether they are rotational or tangential discontinuities. To distinguish between these two types, variations of plasma characteristics should be studied.
