We model hot collisionless solar corona/slow solar wind (SW) by kinetic Vlasov equation. The equatorial region with an unprescribed magnetic field is under electromagnetic action, and we have formation of a 3D Quasi-Stationary Coronal Structures (QSCS) in the current-carrying (CC) plasma with SW flows. The QSCS are generated via electromagnetic mode development in plasma having anisotropic velocity distribution function (VDF). As a result we get streamers like stratification mode, CMEs like tearing mode and heliospheric sheet like pinch mode in anisotropic plasma. The scales in the QSCS are defined via angle dependent magnetic Debye scale. The scale itself depends on value and sign of plasma anisotropy parameter which is calculated for postulated plasma VDF.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
