Abstract
A critical review of the interstellar hydrogen in the heliosphere will be presented. Recent Sun-interstellar matter interaction model improv ements, a non-stationary flow and a flexible latitude dependence, will be discussed. We also consider the influence of heliospheric interfac e on neutral flow and the remaining refinements, which could help to b etter interpret the results of the SWAN experiment on board SOHO.
