The question as how to best describe a satellite population is discussed. The perturbation to the reduction factor by charge exchange among the ballistic and escaping population was found negligible. The OGO-5 data was reproduced satisfactorily by introducing a satellite population characterized by lambda sub cs = 1.5 and a temperature which equals the neutral temperature beyond about 6 R sub c but increases inward to about 1.2 times the neutral temperature at 2 R sub c. It was argued that the radiation pressure effects are symmetrical and hence are unlikely to be the cause of the observed asymmetry.
