Scientific paper

After an investigation regarding various conditions and processes affecting the local interstellar medium it is concluded that charge exchange processes impede the penetration of gas particles through the interstellar plasma into the solar system and reduce the particle density. It is found that the local interstellar gas has somewhat higher neutral-hydrogen density and lower ion density than the standard theoretical values.
