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 ...

Hypotheses for near-surface exchange of methane on Mars [PDF]

, 2016
The Curiosity rover recently detected a background of 0.7 ppb and spikes of 7 ppb of methane on Mars. This in situ measurement reorients our understanding of the Martian environment and its potential for life, as the current theories do not entail any ...

The THEMIS Control Network of Mars

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The accurate co‐registration of geospatial data is necessary to answer questions that cross‐cut disciplines and are key to understanding fundamental questions about our Solar System. To address this need and provide an updated product for Mars that is tied to a common reference frame, we have photogrammetrically controlled Thermal Emission ...

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 ...

Olivine‐Ahrensite Phase Relations in the Mg2SiO4‐Fe2SiO4 System as a Function of Temperature

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Olivine and ahrensite are the primary components of the interiors of Fe‐rich terrestrial planets and meteorites, making their phase relations crucial for planetary science. Moreover, their phase relations can be used for calibrating large‐volume high‐pressure devices such as multi‐anvil apparatus.

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 ...

Characterization of a Lava Plain NW of Ascraeus Mons, Mars, Through Surface Morphometric Analyses and SHARAD Subsurface Detections

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The Martian lava plains are characterized by their extensive, low‐relief surfaces, which are the result of numerous basaltic eruptions and feature a variety of volcanic landforms, including vents, cones, pits, and skylights. The combination of these features and impact craters yields a significant understanding of the planet's geological past ...
