Super‐Resolution of Planetary Images Based on Generative Adversarial Network
Abstract Currently, satellite imagery serves as the primary means of observing terrestrial planets such as the Mars, the Moon, and Mercury. Enhancing the resolution and quality of these images can provide more detailed insights into planetary surfaces. However, improvements in image quality are often limited by the constraints of sensor technology and ...

Beyond the Electrostatic Approach: Numerical Simulations of Martian Ionospheric Irregularities
Abstract Numerical simulations play an essential role in the study of ionospheric irregularities. In the past few decades, electrostatic simulations have successfully simulated the nonlinear evolution of terrestrial ionospheric irregularities. However, the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) observations reveal that the Martian ionospheric ...

Abstract Wave‐particle resonance is a key mechanism for energy transfer in collisionless plasmas with important implications for wave excitation and particle acceleration. Cyclotron resonance occurs when a particle's gyromotion synchronizes with the wave fields, with their interactions usually describable by quasilinear diffusion or nonlinear trapping.

Abstract Satellite data have been used to estimate the three‐dimensional orientation of features on Mars inferred to be bedding planes to support interpretations of deposit characteristics and depositional environments. Opportunities to ground‐truth these estimates and to understand the geologic information recorded by surfaces measured from orbit are ...

The Impact of Data Resolution on Planetary Compressional Structure Analysis
Abstract Planetary studies of compressional structures are fundamental for understanding the tectonics and thermal evolution of planetary bodies. Compressional features are commonly characterized by their morphology, which in turn is strongly dependent on the spatial resolution of topographic data.

Currents in the Martian Ionosphere: Cases Without Strong Crustal Magnetic Fields
Abstract The Martian ionosphere hosts complex current systems driven both by solar wind interactions and neutral wind dynamo processes. While the global patterns of these current systems have been statistically examined, their detailed structures and orientations remain poorly constrained.

Abstract Silicate melt viscosity plays a pivotal role in the evolution of rocky bodies within the Solar System, exerting first‐order control on mantle differentiation and stratification, while dictating the metal‐silicate separation and the subsequent volcanic activity.

Abstract The presence of minor minerals is a key factor distinguishing meteorite types, as they provide valuable insights into the formation processes, surface conditions, and evolutionary history of their parent bodies. In Martian nakhlites, one of the most distinctive minor phases is iron‐titanium oxides forming characteristic skeletal textures ...

Abstract Mantle convection drives the solid Earth, powering plate motions, volcanism, and earthquakes while regulating planetary heat loss. Reconstructing its history is hampered by sparse, noisy observations concentrated near the surface and the present day. Here I develop an inverse physics‐informed neural network framework to estimate mantle thermal

Abstract Ice forms seasonally in mid‐latitude soils, and permanently as permafrost in arctic sediments. Ice blocks some of the pore space, altering the flow of both liquid water and gas. Here, we determine the equilibrium position of ice in a three‐phase ice/water/gas system by minimizing the free energy of the system.
