PLASMA IN THE HELIOSHEATH: 3.5 YEARS OF OBSERVATIONS
Voyager 2 (V2) has observed heliosheath (HSH) plasma since 2007 August. We describe how the plasma has evolved across the HSH. We show that the low solar wind dynamic pressure leads to an inward movement of the termination shock (TS) of about 10 AU to a minimum position of 73 AU in 2010. Near the TS...
