Abstract

In this chapter we review the observations and various interpretations of the 2 to 3 kHz heliospheric radio emissions that have been detected by the plasma wave receivers on the two Voyager spacecraft over the last decade or so. A new event which began in mid-1992 has offered unprecedented information on the details of the emission. We concentrate on interpretations that involve emission at the plasma frequency or its harmonic near the heliopause. The emissions appear to be triggered by a system of interplanetary shocks associated with a global merged interaction region that had its origins in a series of
