SH23A:
From the Heliosphere to Interstellar Exploration Beyond: IMAP - Understanding the Interaction Between the Heliosphere and the Galaxy, and Particle Energization in the Heliosphere Posters

Submit an Abstract to this Session



Session ID#: 30676

Session Description:
The next Solar Terrestrial Probes mission, IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe), will launch no later than 2024. IMAP's scientific objectives are focused on the understanding of: 1) the interaction between the solar wind, with its magnetic field, and the local interstellar medium; 2) the temporal and spatial evolution of that interaction region; 3) the properties of the local interstellar medium; and 4) particle injection and acceleration throughout the heliosphere. This session will emphasize the science that can be achieved with IMAP and what needs to be done to make IMAP a success.
