Ionospheric Plasma Transported Into the Martian Magnetosheath
Abstract Heavy cold ions at Mars are gravitationally bound to the planet unless some process provides energy to them. Observations show that cold (<20 eV) and dense (∼>1 cm −3 ) O + /O 2 +

Physics‐Informed Neural Networks for Modeling the Martian Induced Magnetosphere
Abstract Understanding the magnetic field environment around Mars and its response to upstream solar wind conditions provide key insights into the processes driving atmospheric ion escape. To date, global models of Martian induced magnetosphere have been exclusively physics‐based, relying on computationally intensive simulations. For the first time, we

Finite difference time domain simulation of the Earth-ionosphere resonant cavity: Schumann resonances [PDF]
This paper presents a numerical approach to study the electrical properties of the Earth's atmosphere. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique is applied to model the Earth's atmosphere in order to determine Schumann resonant frequencies of ...

Expansion and Shrinking of the Martian Topside Ionosphere
AbstractThe observations made by the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN spacecraft in the topside (≥200 km) ionosphere of Mars show that this region is very responsive to the variations of the external (solar extreme ultraviolet flux, solar wind, and interplanetary magnetic field [IMF]) and internal (the crustal magnetic field) drivers.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

A MAVEN investigation of O++ in the dayside Martian ionosphere
O++ is an interesting species in the ionospheres of both the Earth and Venus. Recent measurements made by the Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer (NGIMS) on board the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) spacecraft provide the first firm ...

Terrestrial Space Weather Protection Through Human‐Produced Mass‐Loading
Abstract While humans become more reliant on Earth's space environment, the potential for significant harm from severe space weather continues to grow. As structures from the sun reach Earth's magnetosphere and space environment, they deposit energy that fuels geomagnetic storms.

Propagation of electromagnetic waves through the Martian ionosphere
International audienceThis paper is related to the study of ELF-VLF wave propagation through the Martian ionosphere using a WKB method. It is expected that waves coming from the atmosphere could be observed by a probe in orbit around Mars ...

Effects of Martian Dust Storms on Ionospheric Peak Altitudes
The effects of Martian dust storms on the atmosphere and ionosphere is one of the hot topics in Mars research. This paper reports on the effects of a local dust storm on the ionospheric peak altitude based on electron density profile observations from ...

Reinvestigating the Nightside Ionosphere of Mars With 8 Years of Mars Express and MAVEN Data
Abstract Tailward ion escape in the nightside magnetotail is one of the dominant paths of ion escape from Mars. The Martian nightside ionosphere can serve as a major reservoir for this escape channel, but its global distributions and dependence on the upstream solar wind have not been fully investigated due to observational limitations.
