Bursty Ion Escape Fluxes at Mars [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2021 Based on the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution measurements we have observed cases when the fluxes of oxygen ions escaping the Martian ionosphere exceed their median values by more than a factor of 100.

Global Venus‐Solar Wind Coupling and Oxygen Ion Escape [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 The present‐day Venusian atmosphere is dry, yet, in its earlier history a significant amount of water evidently existed. One important water loss process comes from the energy and momentum transfer from the solar wind to the atmospheric particles.

Solar cycle variation of ion escape from Mars
Icarus, 2021 Using Mars Express data from 2007 until 2020 we show how ion outflow from Mars varied over more than a solar cycle, from one solar minimum to another. The data was divided into intervals with a length of one Martian year, starting from 30 April 2007 and ...

Stellar influence on heavy ion escape from unmagnetized exoplanets [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 Planetary habitability is in part determined by the atmospheric evolution of a planet; one key component of such evolution is escape of heavy ions to space.

Impact of Martian Crustal Magnetic Field on the Ion Escape [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2020 Based on the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) observations, we have analyzed the role of the crustal magnetic field on ion loss driven by the direct interaction of the solar wind with the Mars ionosphere.

Ion Outflow and Escape in the Terrestrial Magnetosphere: Cluster Advances [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2021 Cluster was the first mission in the terrestrial magnetosphere to involve four spacecraft in a tetrahedral configuration, providing three‐dimensional measurements of the space plasma parameters.

Reduced Atmospheric Ion Escape Above Martian Crustal Magnetic Fields [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 Martian crustal fields were considered as too weak to have a distinctive effect on global escape rates of Martian heavy ions. However, new observations by the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission reveal a more precise result and show a notably ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2023 The rotation of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) provides details of the escape mechanism that varies with the interaction between the intrinsic magnetic field and the IMF.

Ion escape fluxes from Mars [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2007 A 3D, multi‐species, non‐ideal MHD numerical code was used to calculate the ion escape fluxes from Mars. The calculations were carried out for six cases with different nominal solar wind, solar cycle and crustal field orientation conditions and the total escape fluxes (the sum of the three major ionospheric species, O+, O2+, and CO2+) varied by about ...

Oxygen Ion Escape at Venus Associated With Three‐Dimensional Kelvin‐Helmholtz Instability
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 How oxygens escape from Venus has long been a fundamental but controversial topic in the planetary research. Among various key mechanisms, the Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) has been suggested to play an important role in the oxygen ion escape from ...
