| Abstract: |
The dominant feature in the Interstellar Boundary
EXplorer maps is a ribbon of enhanced energetic neutral atom emissions.
We analyze the ribbon formation in the outer heliosheath and
stability of the resulting pitch angle distribution function with respect to
the fast magnetosonic and ion cyclotron wave generation. |
