Explores the behavior of carbon in minerals, melts, and fluids under extreme conditions
Carbon trapped in diamonds and carbonate-bearing rocks in subduction zones are examples of the continuing exchange of substantial carbon ...

Magnetospheres of Terrestrial Exoplanets and Exomoons: Implications for Habitability and Detection [PDF]
Characterizing habitable exoplanets and/or their moons is of paramount importance. Here we show the results of our magnetic field topological modeling which demonstrate that terrestrial exoplanet-exomoon coupled magnetospheres work together to protect the early atmospheres of both the exoplanet and the exomoon.

AB INITIO PULSAR MAGNETOSPHERE: THREE-DIMENSIONAL PARTICLE-IN-CELL SIMULATIONS OF OBLIQUE PULSARS [PDF]
We present “first-principles” relativistic particle-in-cell simulations of the oblique pulsar magnetosphere with pair formation. The magnetosphere starts to form with particles extracted from the surface of the neutron star.

Basing on measurements of cosmic rays at the worldwide network of stations, we calculate variations in the planetary system of geomagnetic cutoff rigidity for the 2015 June moderate geomagnetic storm.

Observational research on Mercury's magnetosphere
Mercury's miniature magnetosphere has no radiation belts, ionosphere, plasmasphere and atmosphere, only a weak exosphere. The induction effect of the planet's very large iron core is obvious. These result in a significant different space environment from

Effects of electrojet turbulence on a magnetosphere‐ionosphere simulation of a geomagnetic storm
Ionospheric conductance plays an important role in regulating the response of the magnetosphere‐ionosphere system to solar wind driving. Typically, models of magnetosphere‐ionosphere coupling include changes to ionospheric conductance driven by extreme ...

ELECTRODYNAMICS OF AXISYMMETRIC PULSAR MAGNETOSPHERE WITH ELECTRON–POSITRON DISCHARGE: A NUMERICAL EXPERIMENT [PDF]
We present the first self-consistent global simulations of pulsar magnetospheres with operating e± discharge. We focus on the simple configuration of an aligned or anti-aligned rotator.

ULF fluctuations at Terra Nova Bay (Antarctica)
ULF geomagnetic field measurements in Antarctica are a very important tool for better understanding the dynamics of the Earths magnetosphere and its response to the variable solar wind conditions.

Ion acceleration at dipolarization fronts in the inner magnetosphere
During geomagnetic storms plasma pressure in the inner magnetosphere is controlled by energetic ions of tens to hundreds of keV. Plasma pressure is the source of global storm time currents, which control the distribution of magnetic field and couple the ...
