Nonlocal heat transport in the solar wind
It is shown that a nonlocal, suprathermal tail originated near the solar corona base dominates the conductive energy flux at distances r ≥: 2 R ⊙ . A nonlocal analytical expression for the electron heat flux in weakly collisional plasmas is derived by solving the Fokker-Planck equation...

It is shown that a nonlocal, suprathermal tail originated near the solar corona base dominates the conductive energy flux at distances r ≥: 2 R ⊙ . A nonlocal analytical expression for the electron heat flux in weakly collisional plasmas is derived by solving the Fokker-Planck equation in a narrow, tail energy range. A correction to the anisotropy of the distribution function due to the divergent magnetic field lines was included. This term is essential to recover from the delocalization prescription, in the limit r ≥ 6 R ⊙ , the well-known Hollweg's Ansatz for the "collisionless" heat flux.
