Zusammenfassung |
NASA’s Interstellar Boundary Explorer mission has been flying for over a year now, and has
provided exciting new evidence for a structured interaction between the solar wind and the
local interstellar medium. The IBEX instrumentation suite also enables direct observation of
local interstellar neutral gas, which flows unimpeded into the solar system. We report here the
constraints on parameters of local interstellar helium, and also comparisons of the
measurements to models of the interaction of the heliosphere and the local interstellar
neutrals. > > |
