Scientific paper

A study of the parameters of the undisturbed interstellar medium which surrounds the solar system can be conducted by adopting a model for the interaction between the interstellar gas and the solar system, and then comparing the predicted sky brightness in the hydrogen and helium resonance lines against the picture actually observed. When the observations are interpreted in this manner, the reliability of the properties inferred for the undisturbed interstellar gas will depend fundamentally on the completeness and correctness of the models employed. Such models have generally not made any allowance for the fact that the solar wind contains a neutral component. In the present investigation, a qualitative examination is conducted concerning the influence of the neutral solar-wind component on the interaction of the interstellar gas stream with the solar system. The semiquantiative estimates obtained indicate that the influence is by no means negligible.
