Scientific paper

The flow of the solar wind around Venus was modelled numerically, taking into account the loading of the flow by heavy ions forming during photoionization of the neutral oxygen corona of that planet. It is shown that this effect can explain a number of aspects of interaction between the solar wind and the planet which until now have not been clear, such as the position of the bow shock, characteristics of the solar wind flow and the magnetic field behind the front.
