Oxychlorine Species on Mars: A Review

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract Oxychlorine species (mainly perchlorate and chlorate) have been identified at multiple locations on the surface of Mars by both orbiter and in situ rovers. They have also been found in martian meteorites. Cl‐isotopes in meteoritic minerals suggest that an oxychlorine cycle has been operating on the martian surface for the last ∼4 billion years.

ARAMIS: a Martian radiative environment model built from GEANT4 simulations

Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate
A new model of the Martian surface radiative environment has been built: Atmospheric RAdiation Model for Ionizing spectra on martian Surface (ARAMIS). Based on Monte Carlo calculations, it offers high computational flexibility for surface flux spectra ...

Chalcophile Element Constraints on the Sulfur Content of the Martian Mantle [PDF]

The sulfur content of the Martian mantle is critical to understanding volcanic volatiles supplied to the surface of Mars and possibly climate. In the absence of Martian mantle rocks, sulfur content of the mantle has been inferred from S contents of ...

The Usefulness of NotebookLM's Audio Overview for Planetary Scientists

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract The availability and use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools has increased substantially in recent years. NotebookLM was released in 2023 and is an AI tool with the capability to generate text summaries of input material. In 2024, an “Audio Overviews” feature was released that can generate podcast‐style audio files of the summarized material.

The search for ancient life on Mars using morphological and mass spectrometric analysis: an analog study in detecting microfossils in Messinian gypsum

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Hydrated sulfate deposits have been detected on Mars. A spaceflight instrument capable of detecting microfossils in these salt deposits is highly important for the search for ancient life on Mars.

Petrologic constraints on the pressure, temperature, time and composition of the Martian interior [PDF]

Petrologic analysis of surface samples has been used to deduce pressure and temperature conditions existing in the crust and upper mantle at specific times in the Earth's history, as well as to estimate the chemical and mineralogical composition of the ...

Effects of Mineralogy and UV Radiation on the Detectability of Amino Acids Within the Martian Regolith: The Case for a Combined Chromatographical and Spectroscopical Approach

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Amino acids are an extremely heterogeneous group of biomolecules essential for life on Earth. Their biosignatures are expected to be easily degraded on the Martian surface as the absence of a thick atmosphere and a magnetosphere leads to most of the solar radiation directly reaching its surface.

Magnetic Flux Ropes at Mars and Their Impacts on Heavy Ion Escape

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract Flux ropes (FRs), ubiquitous helical magnetic structures in solar system plasmas, are important to energy and particle transport. At Mars, where global intrinsic magnetic fields are absent, FRs form through magnetic reconnection (MR) and magnetospheric or ionospheric boundary wave instabilities (BWIs), but their role in ion escape remains ...
