Mothership-Cubesat Radioscience for Phobos Geodesy and Autonomous Navigation

Remote Sensing, 2022
The knowledge of the interior structure (e.g., homogeneous, porous, or fractured) of Martian moons will lead to a better understanding of their formation as well as the early solar system.

Ion Escape From Degenerate Induced Magnetospheres: The Case of Mars

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 12, 28 June 2025.
Abstract When the cone angle of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) becomes small, induced magnetospheres of unmagnetized planets degenerate. Using hybrid simulations, we study ionospheric ion escape in a 4° cone angle case and compare it with the nominal 55° cone angle (Parker spiral) case. The total escape rate is 1.7×1025 $1.7\times 1{0}^{25}$ s−

Deriving IMF Properties From Mars Express Heavy Pickup Ion Measurements

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 11, 16 June 2025.
Abstract We present Mars Express (MEX) observations of heavy pickup ions (HPUI) at Mars and a new method to derive interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) properties. The MEX HPUI measurements were organized using the upstream IMF directions measured by the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) mission.

Field‐Aligned Proton Beams Upstream of the Martian Bow Shock: First Observations

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 11, 16 June 2025.
Abstract We report fast sunward‐propagating energetic proton field‐aligned beams (FABs) observed about one Mars radius upstream of the Martian bow shock, recorded by the Solar Wind Ion Analyzer instrument on the MAVEN spacecraft. The velocity distributions show that all the beams have a bulk parallel speed vB=(1.35±0.21)VS ${v}_{B}=(1.35\pm 0.21){V}_{S}

Physically Based Real‐Time Rendering of Eclipses

Computer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 2, May 2025.
Abstract We present a novel approach for simulating eclipses, incorporating effects of light scattering and refraction in the occluder's atmosphere. Our approach not only simulates the eclipse shadow, but also allows for watching the Sun being eclipsed by the occluder.
