Study Of The Solar Wind Parameters During The 23rd Solar Cycle

In this paper we study the solar wind parameters during the 23rd solar cycle and the possible correlation between them. Those parameters’ data, which are Alfven Mach number, plasma beta, flow speed, proton density and temperature, dynamic pressure, average magnetic field, Bx and By, has been taken from OMNI 2. The first part of this project is about analysis and correlation of the data, using Pearson’s product moment correlation coefficient and Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient, during the 11 years of the 23rd cycle. The second part is about Wavelet analysis on those parameters during the 21st, 22nd, 23rd solar cycles in comparison with them. We found that each parameter has different behavior in every cycle and certain periodicities that appear constantly.
