Abstract

The aim of this study is to improve the knowledge of the slow solar wind origin. In particular, we compute the emissivities and the intensities of UV spectral lines starting from the physical parameters of a time-dependent 3D three-fluid MHD model of the tilted coronal streamer belt. The results obtained from the model are compared in the extended corona (at 1.5 and 1.9 R�) to the UV spectroscopic data from the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS) onboard SOHO in the streamer belt during the minimum of solar activity (1996). The discussion is focused on the importance of the projection effects due to the integration along the line of sight in the coronal ultraviolet observations of streamer core dimming.
