Context. Launched in 1996, HSTOF on board SOHO was the first instrument to detect the energetic neutral atoms (ENA) from the heliosheath. After mid 2003, the field of view of HSTOF was restricted to the flank sectors of the heliosheath, in which region the energetic ion distributions are still unknown. Interpretation of these data requires understanding of the energetic ion transport in the inner heliosheath.
