EMIRS Observations of the Aphelion‐Season Mars Atmosphere [PDF]

open access: hybridGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Thermal infrared spectra taken by the Emirates Mars Infrared Spectrometer (EMIRS) on‐board the Emirates Mars Mission (EMM) spacecraft are well suited for the retrieval of surface temperatures, the atmospheric temperature profile from the surface to ∼40 ...

THz generation from laser-induced breakdown in pressurized molecular gases: on the way to terahertz remote sensing of the atmospheres of Mars and Venus

open access: goldNew Journal of Physics, 2020
The present paper studies the generation of terahertz (THz) radiation in CO _2 in comparison with atmospheric air at a wide range of pressures. We established experimentally and explained theoretically that for these gases there are optimal pressures at ...

Probing Dust and Water in Martian Atmosphere with Far-Infrared Frequency Spacecraft Occultation

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Airborne dust plays an active role in determining the thermal structure and chemical composition of the present-day atmosphere of Mars and possibly the planet’s climate evolution over time through radiative–convective and cloud microphysics processes ...

MAVEN mission perspectives and approaches to inclusion

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023
The Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission (MAVEN) is a NASA spacecraft that has been orbiting Mars since 2014. The Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission team has established a current set of best practices to strengthen Diversity ...

Tianwen-1 and MAVEN Observations of the Response of Mars to an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) are solar transients that have significant effects on the upper atmosphere and ionosphere of Mars. The simultaneous spacecraft observations from Tianwen-1/MOMAG in solar wind and multiple instruments on board

Study on Effect of Aerodynamic Configuration on Aerodynamic Performance of Mars Ascent Vehicles

open access: yesSpace: Science & Technology, 2022
The Mars surface take-off and ascent technology is one of the key technologies for realizing the Mars sample return mission. Different from that on the moon, the gravity acceleration on the surface of Mars is 3.71 m/s2, so that the gravity loss is larger

A three-dimensional atmospheric dispersion model for Mars

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2021
Atmospheric local-to-regional dispersion models are widely used on Earth to predict and study the effects of chemical species emitted into the atmosphere and to contextualize sparse data acquired at particular locations and/or times. However, to date, no

Detection of Martian dust storms using mask regional convolutional neural networks

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2022
Martian dust plays a crucial role in the meteorology and climate of the Martian atmosphere. It heats the atmosphere, enhances the atmospheric general circulation, and affects spacecraft instruments and operations.
