Abstract

Initial observational data and their analysis made by Hewish and Bravo (1986) are examined critically. It is shown that the conclusion drawn by them that coronal holes are solar sources of all eruptive plasma flows recorded in interplanetary space by the method of IPS-images using 900 radio sources, is ungrounded. At the same time it is argued that, under certain conditions, coronal holes are indeed able to emit eruptive flows which are capable of exciting interplanetary shock waves.
