A Numerical Model for the Dynamics of Pickup Ions Outside the Heliopause and IBEX “Ribbon” Observation

A Numerical Model for the Dynamics of Pickup Ions Outside the Heliopause and IBEX “Ribbon” Observation

The leading mechanism for the origin of the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) “ribbon” of enhanced energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) from the outer heliosphere is the so-called secondary ENA process. In this mechanism, neutralized ions escape the heliosphere, and after several times of charge excha...
