Scientific objectives
The goal of our team is to improve our understanding of the neutral He density measurements from Ulysses at higher heliospheric latitudes, by using a line-of-sight dependent solar EUV flux and He photoionization rates. Changes in the GAS experiment measurements as Ulysses passes over the solar poles are largely controlled by the changing photoionization of neutral He, itself dependent on the varying EUV flux with time and spacecraft position. Using our more accurate solar inputs, we will relate the absolute values of the polar GAS neutral He measurements o the pristine original He density of the LISM originally entering the heliosphere.
