Summary
The completed boundary map resolves long-standing disagreements between earlier density models by combining four synchronized outer-array paths into a single normalized frame.
Instrument Notes
The science team corrected for seasonal drift in the sensor package and used revised cosmic-ray shielding estimates to isolate the outer-band particle distribution.
Agency Implication
This dataset tightens AEON’s planning envelope for future heliopause missions and improves communications risk modeling for any craft that must operate at the edge of the Sun’s magnetic influence.
