A Study of Kelvin‐Helmholtz Instability at Unmagnetized Planets by Finite Larmor Radius MHD
Abstract Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI) at unmagnetized planetary ionopauses plays a key role in driving solar wind–ionosphere coupling and planetary ion escape. We investigate KHI using a two‐dimensional finite Larmor radius (FLR) MHD model.

The Hebrus Valles region on Mars exhibits geomorphological indicators of past aqueous activity, such as fluvial channels and aligned sinkholes. While Martian skylights have mostly been linked to volcanic or tectonic origins, caves formed by water ...

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.

A Martian regolith‐simulant/PDMS triboelectric nanogenerator is developed as an ISRU‐inspired, self‐powered tactile sensor for wireless human–machine interface applications. ABSTRACT Achieving a sustainable energy system for space missions remains challenging due to the continued reliance on Earth‐supplied materials.

Resultant Force on Grains of a Real Sand Dune: How to Measure It?
Barchan dunes usually appear under the action of one‐directional fluid flows, being found on Earth, Mars, and other celestial bodies; however, although ubiquitous in nature, understanding dune dynamics at the grain scale is challenging due to the vast ...

GIS analyses of Martian satellite imageries and topographic data
A large amount of satellite imagery is now available for the surface of Mars; this imagery has spatial resolutions up to 25 cm/pixel, and a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) has been constructed to allow the analysis of Martian topography. These data are important for studies of geological and geomorphological processes on Mars, and may form the basis of ...

Microsatellite Constellation Design for Global Mars Observation
Imaging of Mars allows for the study of its geology and climate, the detection of traces of past water and potential conditions conducive to life, and the selection of safe landing sites for future missions.
