From the Heliosphere to the Local Bubble—What Have We Learned?

Abstract

The ISSI Workshop "From the Heliosphere to the Local Bubble" has brought together space physicists who work on the in-situ study of the interaction of the heliosphere with the surrounding circum-heliospheric interstellar medium (CHISM) and astrophysicists interested in the interstellar medium itself and in the wider neighborhood known as the Local Bubble. This paper contains a summary of the workshop except for the big picture presentations given at the last day, It contains highlights as viewed by the author and is organized to lead the reader from the heliosphere, via the immediate solar neighborhood into the Local Bubble, with the attempt of a brief outlook into the future.
