Here's a representation of it: [ link to www.space.com] The IBEX spacecraft has found that Energetic Neutral Atoms, or ENAs, are coming from a region just outside Earth's magnetopause where nearly stationary protons from the solar wind interact with the tenuous cloud of hydrogen atoms in Earth's exosphere.Sickscent, in that image you see the ENA-formation zone. Energetic neutral atoms equal plasma, isn't that so? That's where plasma is created?
