Low-frequency Waves Due to Newborn Interstellar Pickup Ions Observed from 43 to 47 au by the Voyager 1 Spacecraft
Interstellar neutral atoms enter the heliosphere at a relatively slow speed corresponding to the motion of the Sun through the local interstellar medium, which is approximately 25 km s ^−1 . Neutral hydrogen atoms enter from the approximate location of the Voyager spacecraft and are eventually ioniz...
