The plasma flow in the heliospheric interface is considered. The applicability of hydrodynamic description for this flow is studied. The effect of the magnetic field on the transport properties in the interface plasma is discussed and the dimensionless parameters related to the plasma flow are estimated. It is found that both resistivity and Hall effect can be neglected in Ohm's law, so that the c...
