Аннотация:Flows in white light are studied using data from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)and Solar TERrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) satellites. The flows and their variations in solarcycles 23 and 24 are analyzed. A review of coronal matter velocities in the image plane is presented using theresults of observations published in scientific journals and on websites. At distances of 2–6 solar radii (R☉),plasma blobs were detected in motion both towards the Sun and away from its surface at velocities from tensto hundreds of km s–1. The study of coronal line profiles obtained during total solar eclipses is one of themethods for obtaining information about physical parameters of the solar corona. Observations made duringtotal solar eclipses provide convincing evidence for the existence of mass motions in the corona.
