First Resolution of a Main Sequence G-Star Astrosphere Using Chandra
C. M. Lisse, S. J. Wolk, B. Snios +24
We report resolution of a halo of X-ray line emission surrounding the Zero Age Main Sequence (ZAMS) G8.5V star HD 61005 by Chandra ACIS-S. Located only 36.4 pc distant, HD 61005 is…
Plasma pressures in the heliosheath from Cassini ENA and Voyager 2 measurements: Validation by the Voyager 2 heliopause crossing
K. Dialynas, S. M. Krimigis, R. B. Decker +1
We report "ground truth", 28-3500 keV in-situ ion and 5.2-55 keV remotely sensed ENA measurements from Voyager 2/Low Energy Charged Particle (LECP) detector and Cassini/Ion and Neu…
First comparison of composite 0.52-55 keV ENA spectra observed by IBEX and Cassini/INCA with simulated ENAs inferred by proton hybrid simulations downstream of the termination shock
Matina Gkioulidou, M. Opher, M. Kornbleuth +9
We present a first comparison of Energetic Neutral Atom (ENA) heliosheath measurements, remotely sensed by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission and the Ion and Neutral…
Signatures of Reconnection and a Split Heliospheric Tail in High-Energy Energetic Neutral Atoms
M. Kornbleuth, M. Opher, J. F. Drake +10
The shape of the heliosphere, regarded as comet-like since the 1960s, has recently been the subject of intense debate in the last decade. There is disagreement whether the heliosph…
Signature of a heliotail organized by the solar magnetic field and the role of non-ideal processes in modeled IBEX ENA maps: a comparison of the BU and Moscow MHD models
M. Kornbleuth, M. Opher, I. Baliukin +9
Energetic neutral atom (ENA) models typically require post-processing routines to convert the distributions of plasma and H atoms into ENA maps. Here we investigate how two differe…
The development of a split-tail heliosphere and the role of non-ideal processes: a comparison of the BU and Moscow models
M. Kornbleuth, M. Opher, I. Baliukin +11
Global models of the heliosphere are critical tools used in the interpretation of heliospheric observations. There are several three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) heliosphe…
