Scientific paper

The paper presents an analysis and a comparison of results of the Mars-2, -3, and -5 flights to Mars and results of the Phobos 2 mission, as well as a comparison of the features of the boundaries observed in the region of the interaction of the solar wind (SW) with Comet Halley and Venus and Mars during the periods of the solar minimum and maximum. It is shown that all these bodies are similar in some aspects, e.g., a cometopauselike chemical boundary. However, this boundary can form near the planets only when there is high dynamical SW pressure during the solar maximum. The obstacle to the SW flow near Mars can be both magnetospheric and ionospheric during the solar maximum.
