Аннотация:The effects of the interstellar magnetic field (ISMF) on the global 3D structure of the heliospheric interface - the region of the solar wind interaction with the local interstellar medium - is studied. We performed a parametric study by varying alpha - the angle between the interstellar velocity and ISMF vectors. It is shown that the effect of deflection of the interstellar H atom direction is caused by MHD nature of the interstellar flow rather than the asymmetric shape of the heliopause. Distances of the TS and HP and thickness of inner heliosheath are presented for different alpha.
