Computed solar wind speed as a function of latitude at 5 R_⊙ with a different assumption on the electron temperature. The black line in the top panel corresponds to the assumption of a temperature profile from Gibson et al. (1999) (G99), The green, blue, and red lines show T_e = 0.4 MK, T_e = 0.6 MK, and T_e = 1.0 MK, respectively. In the bottom panel, overlapping the speeds obtained with Gibson et al. (1999) (G99), we show the speeds with the temperature profiles given by Vásquez et al. (2003). The blue line shows a coronal hole profile (V03CH), and the red line shows a streamer profile (V03ST).
