What Is the Radiation Impact of Extreme Solar Energetic Particle Events on Mars?
Space Weather, 2023 Solar Energetic Particles (SEP) are one of the major sources of the Martian radiation environment. It is important to understand the SEP‐induced Martian radiation environment for future human habitats on Mars.

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020 Forbush decreases are depressions in the galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) that are caused primarily by modulations of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) but also occasionally by stream/corotating interaction regions (SIRs/CIRs).

The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 Present-day Mars is cold and dry, but mineralogical and morphological evidence shows that liquid water existed on the surface of ancient Mars. In order to explain this evidence and assess ancient Mars’s habitability, one must understand the size and ...

MAVEN Observations of the Interloop Magnetic Reconnections at Mars
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Magnetic reconnection between neighboring magnetic field loops, the so-called interloop reconnection, is a common process to drive flares in the solar atmosphere.

Moisture in the Atmosphere of Mars [PDF]
Nature, 1904 IN your issue of May 5 I see a note in the astronomical column on Mr. Lowell's theory of the Martian canals. It is perhaps not just to criticise it on so short a summary, but there is a point on which I should like to ask a question. If, as Mr. Lowell says, there is not sufficient moisture on the planet to produce vegetation, how does the water return ...

The Mars Topside Ionosphere Response to the X8.2 Solar Flare of 10 September 2017
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 On 10 September 2017, irradiance from a magnitude X8.2 solar flare impacted Mars while the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) orbiter was characterizing the Mars upper atmosphere.

Long-term variability of CO2 and O in the Mars upper atmosphere from MRO radio science data [PDF]
, 2015 We estimate the annual variability of CO2 and O partial density using approximately 6years of Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) radio science data from August 2006 to January 2012, which cover three full Martian years (from the northern hemisphere summer

Martian Proton Aurora Brightening Reveals Atmospheric Ion Loss Intensifying
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The Martian proton aurora is a distinct aurora phenomenon resulting from the direct deposition of solar wind energy into Mars' dayside atmosphere. What solar wind parameters influence the aurora activity in the short term is yet unknown, as are the ...

The Atmospheres of Mars and Venus [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1961 Of all the planets which may exist in the Universe, only nine have been studied by man. As a result, one cannot classify planets with the same confidence that one has in classifying stars; there is no theory of planetary evolution comparable in development to the theory of stellar evolution.
