Scientific paper

The first IBEX all-sky maps of heliospheric energetic neutral atom (ENA) flux show features that have significant energy and spatial variation across the sky. These features are observed from 0.2 keV to 6 keV, i.e., over nearly the entire energy range of the IBEX combined payload. They stand above the more diffuse, globally distributed heliospheric ENA flux by a significant amount and their height above the diffuse ENA flux appears to depend strongly on energy. This talk focuses on observed characteristics of these features and possible implications that they have for the important processes that shape the outer heliosphere.
