The Ne/O abundance in the LIC calculated from Eq. (20) for various combinations of NIS gas inflow longitude and speed, based on filtration factors and the Ne/O flux ratio measured at IBEX by Bochsler et al. (2012). The LIC abundances are listed at the line that is the correlation between the inflow longitude and speed obtained by Bzowski et al. (2012) from analysis of NIS He observations by IBEX-Lo. For the best-fit parameters obtained by Bzowski et al. (2012), the LIC abundance is 0.16, for the flow parameters obtained by Witte et al. (2004) from analysis of NIS He observations by GAS/Ulysses the abundance is 0.18.
