Additional acceleration of solar-wind particles in current sheets of the heliosphere [PDF]
, 2015 Particles of fast solar wind in the vicinity of the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) or in a front of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) often reveal very peculiar energy or velocity profiles, density distributions with double or triple peaks,

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) contribute closed magnetic flux to the heliosphere while they are connected at both ends to the Sun and play a key role in adding magnetic flux to the heliosphere.

Using hydrogen energetic neutral atoms to study the heliosphere [PDF]
, 2021 The interaction between the solar wind and the partially ionized gas of the local interstellar medium (ISM) creates a bubble known as the heliosphere. Classically, the shape of the heliosphere has been regarded as comet-like, with a long tail pointed in ...

Boundary conditions of the heliosphere [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2003 Radiative transfer equilibrium models of nearby interstellar matter (ISM) are required to determine the boundary conditions of the heliosphere from astronomical observations of nearby stars. These models are also constrained by data on the ISM inside of the solar system, including pickup ion, anomalous cosmic rays, and in situ Heo data.

Complementary interstellar detections from the heliotail
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesThe heliosphere is a protective shield around the solar system created by the Sun’s interaction with the local interstellar medium (LISM) through the solar wind, transients, and interplanetary magnetic field.

Heliospheric conditions that affect the interstellar gas inside the heliosphere [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2004 The interstellar gas that flows through the heliosphere is strongly affected by ionization close to the Sun, in particular solar photoionization, electron impact, and charge exchange. Therefore, the interpretation of any observation of interstellar gas in the inner heliosphere hinges upon the accurate knowledge of these effects and their variations. In

What is the heliopause? Importance of magnetic reconnection and measurement requirements
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 We highlight the importance of magnetic reconnection at the heliopause, both as one of the key processes driving the interaction between solar and interstellar media, but also as an element of the definition of the heliopause itself.

Trajectories and Distribution of Interstellar Dust Grains In The Heliosphere [PDF]
, 2012 The solar wind carves a bubble in the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM) known as the heliosphere. Charged interstellar dust grains (ISDG) encountering the heliosphere may be diverted around the heliopause or penetrate it depending on their charge-to ...
