The heliospheric magnetic field configuration is largely determined in the solar atmosphere. The interplanetary magnetic field is therefore intimately linked with the coronal structure and evolution during the solar cycle. We summarize recent experimental results from active satellite experiments on Ulysses and the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE). These results provide constraints on the sources of the solar wind and also the magnetic structure of the heliosphere and the corona. These results suggest the relevance of reconnection processes and differential rotation effects close to the Sun. This leads to large perturbations from a standard Archimedean spiral configuration which cannot be successfully modeled using coronal models which assume a potential magnetic field.

Detailed measurements of the trapped magnetic fields and currents in plasma structures generated by conical theta-pinches are reported. Studies of these structures interacting with a magnetic barrier, and with each other in a collision at the centre of a magnetic mirror, are reported. The magnetic well formed by the collision has been studied by simultaneous use of several diagnostic techniques. The measurements are in agreement with a force-free, collinear magnetic field configuration (Wells 1972). Arguments relating superposability and collinearity of flow fields to these observations are given.
