Heliosphere/Interstellar Medium Interactions, Heliopause And Solar Wind Termination, Magnetohydrodynamics And Plasmas

Scientific paper

A short survey of work done on the interaction of the interstellar medium with the solar wind in view of the recent Voyager and HST data is made. From this perspective, we discuss configurations of the heliospheric interface. We present new results from our 3D MHD model using a new, nonuniform grid allowing for higher resolution results. The interplanetary magnetic field described by the Parker - Archimedean spiral model is introduced in two different ways, including a new approach to modeling the heliospheric current sheet (HCS). These new results are compared with results from other models. This comparison suggests that it is important that modelers correctly model the HCS.
