The size and structure of the heliopause, which is the hypothesized boundary separating the antiflowing solar wind from the interstellar medium, is discussed. The results of laboratory simulations found the existence of such a boundary as a highly asymmetrical and open structure not yet predicted. The heliopause is produced as a collisionless interaction between the supersonic plasma flow and another supersonic magnetized plasma flow flowing relative to the solar system. Earlier, a laboratory simulation of a cometary magnetosphere produced as an interaction between the solar wind plasma flow and a subsonic plasma flow was performed. Heliosphere is formed as a collisionless interaction between the magnetized plasma flow and the other supersonic plasma flow.
