Evidence of a Thick Heliopause Boundary Layer Resulting from Active Magnetic Reconnection with the Interstellar Medium

Evidence of a Thick Heliopause Boundary Layer Resulting from Active Magnetic Reconnection with the Interstellar Medium

Voyager 1 and 2 data from the vicinity of the heliopause and very local interstellar medium are reexamined to better understand the confounding lack of rotation in the magnetic field ( B -field) across the heliopause observed by both Voyagers, despite their very large spatial separations (>100 au...
