Fig. 13

Effective thickness Leff and the actual thickness of the heliosheath L calculated in the model described in Sect. 3. The angle θ is counted from the forward direction (upwind, or apex direction of the interstellar medium inflow). Note the difference between the Leff shown in the figure (based on model calculations) and the Leff in Table 2 (derived from observations).
