No Stagnation Region before the Heliopause at Voyager 1? Inferences from New Voyager 2 Results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We present anisotropy results for anomalous cosmic-ray protons in the energy range ~0.5–35 MeV from Cosmic Ray Subsystem (CRS) data collected during calibration roll maneuvers for the magnetometer instrument when Voyager 2 (V2) was in the inner ...

Instability of the heliopause driven by charge exchange interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The stability of the heliopause that separates the tenuous hot magnetized heliosheath plasma from the dense cool local interstellar magnetized plasma is examined using a fully general model that includes all the essential physical processes.

The charge-exchange induced coupling between plasma-gas counterflows in the heliosheath [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2003
Many hydrodynamic models have been presented which give similar views of the interaction of the solar wind plasma bubble with the counterstreaming partially ionized interstellar medium.

Voyager 1 and 2 Observations of a Change in the Nature of Magnetic Fluctuations in the VLISM with Increasing Distance from the Heliopause [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Voyager 2 (V2) crossed the heliopause at 119.0 au on 2018 day 309, after which it observed compressive (longitudinal) magnetic field fluctuations along the average magnetic field direction in the very local interstellar medium (VLISM) at distances from ...

Evidence of heliopause?

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1985
Observations by the Voyager 1 and 2 plasma wave instruments may have provided evidence of the edge of the solar system by “remote sensing.” The two plasma wave receivers detected a weak signal near 3 kHz during late 1983 and early 1984 while the spacecraft were approximately 13 AU (Voyager 2) and 21 AU (Voyager 1) from the sun.

Magnetic Reconnection in the Space Sciences: Past, Present, and Future

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 125, Issue 2, February 2020., 2020
Abstract Magnetic reconnection converts, often explosively, stored magnetic energy to particle energy in space and in the laboratory. Through processes operating on length scales that are tiny, it facilitates energy conversion over dimensions of, in some cases, hundreds of Earth radii.

Instability of the Heliopause

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2015
The heliopause (HP) separates the tenuous hot heliosheath plasma from the relatively dense cool magnetized plasma of the local interstellar medium (LISM). Fluid acceleration in the HP region can therefore drive Rayleigh-Taylor-like and Kelvin-Helmholtz- like instabilities.

ON THE ROTATION OF THE MAGNETIC FIELD ACROSS THE HELIOPAUSE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2013
There was an expectation that the magnetic field direction would rotate dramatically across the heliopause (HP). This rotation was used as one of the criteria to determine if Voyager 1 (V1) had crossed the HP. Recently the Voyager team concluded that V1 crossed into interstellar space last year (Gurnett et al. 2013).

The structure of the hydrodynamic plasma flow near the heliopause stagnation point [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The plasma flow in the vicinity of the heliopause stagnation point in the presence of the H atom flow is studied. The plasma at both sides of the heliopause is considered to be a single fluid.

Empirical Estimate of the Shape of the Upstream Heliopause from IBEX-Lo Helium Measurements: Preliminary Results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present a simplified model of the outer heliosheath to help interpret the observations of interstellar neutral helium by the IBEX-Lo instruments. We assume that the measured particles are composed of the superposition of a primary beam population ...
