New Insights into the Structure and Energetics of the Martian Ionosphere [PDF]
Understanding the formation and evolution of planetary bodies is of great interest and importance to humankind. Mars, being the closest analogue to Earth in our solar system, has been of particular importance.

Solar rotation effects on the Martian ionosphere [PDF]
AbstractWe present a detailed investigation of the solar rotation effects on the Martian high‐latitude (~63°N–81°N) ionosphere using the electron density (Ne) data measured by Mars Global Surveyor and solar XUV and EUV fluxes measured by SOHO under high (2000–2001), medium (2003), and low (2005) solar activity conditions.

Oxygen Isotopes and Volatiles in Martian Meteorite [PDF]
Oxygen isotopes were measured in mineral separates from martian meteorites using laser fluorination and were found to be remarkably uniform in both δ18O and Δ17O, suggesting that martian magmas did not assimilate aqueously altered crust regardless of any

Ion Heating in the Martian Ionosphere
AbstractEnergetic O+ and O ions with energies of up to a few hundred eV are observed in the Martian ionosphere. Corresponding ion velocity distributions show ion conics, suggesting that the observed ion populations have been heated perpendicular to the local magnetic field before experiencing a magnetic mirror force.

Impact of Superthermal Electrons in the Mars’ lower Ionosphere [PDF]
Recent research has increasingly focused on understanding ion escape from Mars' ionosphere, a phenomenon that contributes significantly to atmospheric loss.

A Survey of Photoelectrons on the Nightside of Mars
Despite produced exclusively on the dayside, photoelectrons, as an important population of the Martian ionosphere, have also been observed on the nightside.

Observation of CO2++ dication in the dayside Martian upper atmosphere
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
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

Icelandic analogs to Martian flood lavas [PDF]
We report on new field observations from Icelandic lava flows that have the same surface morphology as many Martian flood lava flows. The Martian flood lavas are characterized by a platy-ridged surface morphology whose formation is not well understood ...
