Scientific paper

A realistic and time-varying termination shock position is studied by using three-dimensional MHD simulation. The effect of heliospheric disturbances on the position of the termination shock (TS) is examined in some detail by using model of (1) rectangular-type periodic change and (2) triangle-type pulse of the solar-wind ram-pressure. Comparing study of our forecasting simulation (Washimi et al. 2007B) with observed V2-TS crossing enables us a new prospect of the heliospheric structure. It is discussed that the heliosphere can be skewed not only by N-S asymmetry, which is produced by obliquely oriented interstellar magnetic field, but also by some TS-depression in lower latitudes.
