Solar wind disturbances caused by six hypothetical flares from the same active region are traced out to about 15 au, using a simple empirical modeling method developed by Hakamada and Akasofu [1982>. Our method provides a first order construction, temporal and spatial, of flare-induced shocks and their multiple interactions with each other, as well as with the corotating interaction regions. The results are discussed in connection with recent cosmic ray observations by space probes. |
