Observation of CO2++ dication in the dayside Martian upper atmosphere
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2020 Doubly charged positive ions (dications) are an important component of planetary ionospheres because of the large energy required for their formation.

Variability of Draped Interplanetary Magnetic Field in the Subsolar Martian Ionosphere
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In the absence of an intrinsic magnetic field, the solar wind interacts directly with the Martian atmosphere, and the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) drapes around the ionosphere. With the aid of multi-instrument measurements from Mars Atmosphere and

Review of Venusian and Martian ionospheres
地球与行星物理论评, 2021 The launch of Tianwen 1 marks the brand-new stage of the deep space exploration of China, which calls for the foundation of planetary science education in China. In planetary science, the ionosphere is considered to be the region of an atmosphere where a significant number of free thermal electrons and ions exist.

On dusty plasma formation in Martian ionosphere
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020 Abstract A self-consistent model for the formation and evolution of dusty plasmas in the Martian ionosphere is developed. The effects of the initial distributions of dust particles, as well as condensation and absorption of carbon dioxide and water molecules by dust particles, are studied.

Variability of the Martian ionosphere from the MAVEN Radio Occultation Science Experiment
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2019 The Martian ionosphere is produced by a number of controlling processes, including solar extreme ultraviolet radiation (EUV) and X-ray ionization, impact ionization by precipitating electrons, and day-to-night transport.

MITM: A new Mars Ionosphere−Thermosphere Model
Earth and Planetary PhysicsIn this study, we present an innovative Mars Ionosphere−Thermosphere Model (MITM), which is a time-dependent, three-dimensional (3-D) model that comprehensively represents the self-consistently coupled thermosphere and ionosphere of Mars within the ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.Abstract The upper thermosphere is important in the context of space weather, but continuous monitoring of the thermosphere at high latitudes remains limited despite its strong variations associated with geomagnetic activity. Orthohelium, He(23S), is found from the upper thermosphere to lower exosphere, and is a promising tracer of atmospheric dynamics.
