The analysis of solar wind (bulk velocity v, proton density n, proton temperature T) and magnetic field (B) data in the years 1964-1974 makes possible to identify two main classes of high-speed streams (ΔV = (vm - vo)≥ 100 km/sec, vm being the maximum daily mean speed and vo the mean value between the speeds immediately preceding and following the stream; duration Δt ≥ 2 days):
