Lyα Absorption in a “Croissant-like” Heliosphere

Ly α absorption profiles have been used to detect astrospheres and heliospheric absorption from the hydrogen wall and heliotail. Using magnetohydrodynamic models of the heliosphere, we can compare simulated to observed Ly α profiles to probe the neutral hydrogen within and near the heliosphere. Ther...
