The following information is about Solar Wind.

Solar Wind Defined

The outflow of charged particles from the solar corona into space. Because of the high temperature of the particles of the corona (mostly protons and electrons), they are moving at speeds higher than the solar escape velocity. At the orbit of the Earth, these particles are moving at about 500 km/sec. Some of these particles are captured by the magnetic fields of the planets, forming their magnetospheres.

This definition is in context to Atmospheric Chemistry. See more contextual defintions for Solar Wind.
