PRECIPITATION OF ENERGETIC NEUTRAL ATOMS AND INDUCED NON-THERMAL ESCAPE FLUXES FROM THE MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE [PDF]
The precipitation of energetic neutral atoms, produced through charge exchange collisions between solar wind ions and thermal atmospheric gases, is investigated for the Martian atmosphere.

New insights into martian atmospheric chemistry [PDF]
HOx radicals are produced in the martian atmosphere by the photolysis of water vapor and subsequently participate in catalytic cycles that recycle carbon dioxide (CO2) from its photolysis product carbon monoxide (CO), providing a qualitative explanation for the stability of its atmosphere.

Modelling the martian atmosphere [PDF]
Mars general circulation models, used to study the atmosphere of Mars, have developed almost in parallel with terrestrial weather and climate models. These models are now being confronted with a large amount of new spacecraft data, which is allowing the models to be validated more rigorously. This paper briefly reviews the current state of Mars models,

Argon in the Martian atmosphere
Heretofore undetected argon may be a significant constituent of the Martian atmosphere with a partial pressure of 1.8 mbar. The addition of argon to the 5.5±0.8 mbar of CO2, deduced from ground‐based spectroscopy, is consistent with the values of total pressure deduced from the Mariner radio occulation measurements. The presence of argon in the Martian

Revisiting the Solar Wind Deceleration Upstream of the Martian Bow Shock Based on MAVEN Observations
The solar wind deceleration upstream of the Martian bow shock is examined using particle and magnetic field measurements obtained by the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN).

Martian atmospheric O3 retrieval development for the NOMAD-UVIS spectrometer [PDF]
The composition of atmospheric trace gases and aerosols is a highly variable and poorly constrained component of the martian atmosphere, and by affecting martian climate and UV surface dose, represents a key parameter in the assessment of suitability for

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).
