This commission is intended to study the following problems: (1) the solar corona, i.e. the region of the origin of the solar wind; (2) the heliosphere, i.e. the region dominated by the supersonic solar wind as it expands through the neutral component of the interstellar medium; (3) the heliospheric interface, i.e. the region in which the interaction between the two counterstreaming magnetized plasmas, the subsonic solar wind and the interstellar medium, takes place. The activities of this commission cover both theoretical and observational investigations of these three regions.
