These proceedings represent papers presented at the 9th Solar Wind International Conference, held in Nantucket, Massachusetts, USA, in October, 1998. The Conference was attended by 235 scientists from 25 countries. The aim of the Conference was to integrate theory, modeling, in situ measurements, and remote sensing observations of the solar wind. The Conference succeeded in accomplishing that, as is evident from the papers presented. The topics discussed included coronal plasma and streamers, small scale magnetic structure, dynamics of large scale structure, coronal mass ejection, waves and turbulence, the outer heliosphere, magnetohydrodynamics radio tracking, bursts and shock waves, and galactic cosmic rays. At the beginning of the Conference, a historical overview was presented by E. N. Parker, the predictor of solar wind forty years ago. There were 188 papers presented at the conference, out of which 15 have been abstracted for the Energy,Science and Technology database.(AIP)
